Another RWBY Idea and this one is a mix crossover. Some of Naruto and some of a few other series but I would barely call them crossovers. I wanted to get this one down for a while but I was hitting a small block getting it up. It is kinda funny how I came with this idea but I will explain that at the end. Nothing much else to say on this end so hope you all enjoy.
The Red Dawn
Cinder Fall was in a good mood this evening as she walked down one of the sidewalks of Beacon with Mercury and Emerald behind her. Just a few hours ago did her plan for an invasion of Grimm came upon the city of Vale. Even if she had planned the attack to happen a few more days from now when more people from the different kingdoms arrive but that did not hinder her much. The way she saw it today was a success, and after her meeting with Adam Torus she knew her plans were right on track. "Well he was pleasant to talk to," Mercury said interrupting her thoughts "reminds me of when we first met him."
"It doesn't matter as long as he follows his orders," Emerald replied scowling at Mercury before she turned to Cinder, "So what do we do now Cinder?"
"For now we relax and lay low" Cinder answered with her usually smirk as she looked over her shoulder at them. "We can't make our move until the Vytal Festival starts in a two weeks. Then we can continue the plan."
"Well as long as I don't have to do anymore…" he paused seeing what was up ahead "schoolwork."
Cinder and Emerald looked ahead and stopped seeing someone in their way. Two figured stood in the middle of the pathway several feet away from then. One was taller than the other by a good head and a half and they could see some sort of large weapon on his back wrapped in bandages with a hilt sticking out. They were both dressed the same with long black, closed overcoats and wide straw-hats with ribbons and paper talismans hanging from them. With the hats and high collar of the coat it was next to impossible to see who the people were with their faces hidden in shadow. The only other viable feature they can make out was the coats decorated with red clouds on them. Cinder narrowed her eyes while Emerald and Mercury was trying to make them out. "Black coats with red clouds?" Emerald asked aloud before she went wide eye "doesn't that make them members of…?"
"The Red Dawn yes," Mercury finished also making the connection and looking nervous. He knew of the group through his upbringing as well as his work in the criminal underworld under Cinder's orders and he knew these guys were not ones to mess with.
Cinder took a step forward crossing her arms and addressed them, "may I ask what brings two members of the Red Dawn here?"
"We saw your little event today," The taller one replied with a chuckle, "pretty sloppy if you ask me."
Emerald glared while Cinder narrowed her eyes even more. "Indeed," the short one stated in a cold female voice. "However it seems as if it was…early? Not as much damage that could have been done if you had waited a few more days."
The taller one laughed, "Oh really? Did one of your guys jump the gun? I bet it the dumb looking guy with them. He looks like the type to shoot one off early."
"Hey!" Mercury cried clearly not liking the jab at him. Even if Emerald knew this was a serious situation and against someone in Cinder's league from what she heard she could not help but snicker at the jab.
The man however just waved Mercury off, "Relax kid, I hear it's a common problem for virgins like you. Not that I had that problem when I filled out my V-card with-oof!" his partner stops his musing/teasing with a sharp elbow to the ribs.
Mercury scowled before shooting a glare at Emerald as she tries and failed to get her laughter under control. Cinder however made no movement to this little banter, "I ask again; why are you here? I made sure to stay out of your business and plans out of respect and I have been given the same treatment."
"True and our leader has respected that for now," the female said as she lifted her hand up and grabbed the straw-hat, "But we are here as a warning, Cinder. The Red Dawn's plans are nearly completion and about to bear fruit. We will not have them unfurled due to your action." She removes the hat and lower the hand to her side as her cold eyes stared at Cinder "For if you do…we will hold nothing back in killing you."
With the hat remove the others were able to take in the woman. She is a young woman, with pale skin, white hair tied up in a bun at the back of her head with the exception of her bangs, which are brushed off to the right side of her face. Her light blue eyes stared at them and were as cold as ice if not colder. Emerald shivered slightly seeing those eyes, never seeing eyes so cold. Cinder's eyes were more of a fire burning and those can scare her more but she can admit this woman's eyes bothered her. The man next to her chuckled again as he copied his partner and removed his own hat, "Oh I hope that they do try something. I'm in the mood for a fight and my weapon is hungry."
Compared to his partner the man seems to be her opposite with the only thing like his partner was the fact they look like similar ages. His skin was slightly tan tone that was lighter than Emerald's. His hair is a dark black that was spiky pointing to the back and his eyes were also black. What really made him stand out was when he grinned at them the teeth were sharp. The teeth didn't help is appeal as it made him look even more dangerous. He looked from one to another ready for a fight, "So which one do I take?"
"Not now Kira," the woman said, "We are delivering the warning first. If they wish to ignore it, then they will be force to accept the consequences."
Emerald leaned over and whispered to Mercury, "Hey Merc, does that girl look familiar to you?"
"What do you think I memorize all the criminals out there?" Mercury shot back before he focused on the woman.
Emerald scowled at him looking at the woman as well. "I doubt you are smart enough to remember everyone but I can't help but see that Weiss girl."
"The Schnee girl?" Mercury asked aloud "But only criminals are in the Red Dawn not the Schnee family." Then it clicked making him snapped his fingers, "I know her now; that's Winter Schnee. That heiress that attacked both her father and Ironwood before running away."
The newly dubbed narrowed her eyes at him while Kira looked amused, "Look like you got a fanboy Winter. Do you want the pleasure of killing him or shall I?"
"Hey I ain't no fanboy," Mercury shot back before he smirked, "Though I can't say the same for her sister."
Kira let out a low whistle, "virgin boy got some balls."
Winter glared at Mercury, "I suggest you hold your tongue boy."
Cinder was slightly amused knowing Mercury wasn't going to stop unless she ordered it but to see one of the cold hearted members of the Red Dawn act like this was too good to pass up. Mercury shrugged "Can't handle hearing about your little sister? Not surprising since you haven't seen her in who knows how long, years no doubt. I wonder what will she think if she knew you were here when she was just in walking distance from her? How will everyone else react when they hear of her big sister? I bet they-"
He froze but the reason for it was not something he expected. Winter was right in front of him, he didn't even see her move, with her weapon out and pointed inside his mouth. Emerald jumped back looking shocked and slightly scared. Sure she always joked to Mercury that one day she or someone else will cut off his tongue but she never thought it would ever actually happen. Cinder was surprise by this turn of even while Kira looked amused as he reached up and grab the hilt of his weapon. Mercury didn't move a muscle; hell he didn't even breathe as he felt the cold metal against the top of his tongue. Since the blade was inside his mouth he couldn't even use his aura to protect himself. Winter glared as she pressed the blade against Mercury's tongue to prove her point, "I said hold your tongue, or I will remove it right now."
Mercury held back a gulp for fear of what she will do. After a minute Winter held her position before she stated, "Change of plans Kira; kill the other two, this one's mine."
Cinder quickly turned while summoning her blades in a flash of fire and used them to block the overhead strike of Kira's large bandage weapon. Cinder glare at the man as she struggled to push the weapon back. Her dress flared up as she pushed with more force as fire dust was added. Kira slid back but the flame and embers seem to flair out. Kira chuckle holding his weapon ready, "Got to do better than that to stop me."
Before Kira could attack Emerald had her weapons in sickle form and lunched a series of attacks at Kira, forcing the man to rise his weapon to block the attacks. Emerald slid behind him to slash at his legs but the man jumped and swung his sword down forcing Emerald to dodge. "Cinder!" Emerald shouted, "Get out of here!"
Cinder was not one to take orders but she knew she needed Emerald and Mercury for her plan and while she was confident she would be able to defeat the two members of the Red Dawn it would not be an easy fight and she would no doubt be force to go all out. That will no doubt bring unwanted attention from Ironwood and Ozpin before her plans can truly start. Kira however laughed as he kept his attention on Emerald while Cinder ran "you think you can stop me? Girl, your master must really treat you right in bed if you are willing to die for her."
"Shut up!" Emerald shouted as she swung her weapons, extending the chains to attack at a distance.
Kira grinned and knock the weapons away before he swung down at the girl. Emerald was able to retract her sickles and crossed them so they could block the large bandage weapon. However, she nearly buckled under the force and struggled to keep the end away. She had no idea what it did but she had a bad feeling and did not want to take any hits. Kira added more force and slowly his weapon was pushed towards Emerald until the end rested easily on Emerald's shoulder. Kira's grin if anything else turned more menacing "You should know that Samehada doesn't actually cuts," he then pulls sliding the weapons across her shoulder, "It shreds!"
Emerald screams as her shoulder was shredded leaving blood to drip down her arm. She grabbed her shoulder and glared at Kira but also glanced at his weapon. That motion shredded some of the bandages off showing it was not a large metal weapon or even metal at all. Dark blue scales that looked alive covered the weapon and they moved as it the thing was alive. Emerald shivered not liking that weapon at all. Worst was she felt that her a chunk of her aura was gone but it did nothing to stop the attack when she tried to protect her shoulder. She didn't understand what happen but it worried her none the less.
Mercury stayed quieter than he has ever been trying to find a way to get out of this mess. He still was unable to move since the woman's sword as still in his mouth. He didn't notice the black glyph forming behind him before Winter suddenly pulled her sword out from Mercury's mouth without cutting him and kicked the boy's chest. Mercury flew backwards into the glyph which propelled him even farther and faster than before. He landed with a thump and slid a bit before he rights himself up and glared at Winter, who was speeding at him, her sword ready to stab him. He kicked his foot up and blocked the strike, cracking the stone beneath their feet. Mercury pivoted his foot and used the momentum to throw a spinning kick. This Winter dodge before Mercury unleashed a heavy kicking combo with his boots shooting off shotgun blast a few times. Winter either side step or used her sword to angle the kicks and shots away from her bother. She took a step back before she formed several ice spears in the air and then sent them at Mercury. Mercury went low and started to spin around like a breakdance, shooting off which able him to deflect the ice spears. Pushing off the ground Mercury kicked at Winter who summoned a new glyph from under her. To his surprise a large number of small Nevermores all white appeared and flew right at him. They weren't illusions either as he felt it when they hit him as they flew pass and peck at him.
Emerald pants as she slides back to get some distance between her and Kira. The guy was a monster not just in looks but in strength as well. Worst yet was the strong weapon on his. She tried to attack several times but he was fast with that blade and blocked all of her attack be it her sickles or dust bullets. The blade itself seem to have the ability to drain aura as she was only hit one more time after the first and she felt her aura levels dropped below half. She knew she needed an opening but he was not letting up. Their fight had pushed them to a different part of the deserted courtyard and so they couldn't even see Winter and Mercury. Emerald glanced around as Kira charged at her. She whipped her chain out to catch a side pillar and pull her out of harm's way. Kira's weapon smashed into the sidewalk where Emerald was beforehand. He huffed and glanced around but didn't see his target. "You're not thinking of hiding now are you? Where's the fun in that?"
"Kira," A stern voice called behind him.
Kira glanced over to see Winter walked closer to him. He raised a brow, "Done already?"
Winter let out a small barely noticeable huff, "He was nothing special. Time to go."
"Alright," Kira said looking forward and cracking his neck. "Just one question. How stupid…Do You Think I Am!?" he roared turning on his heel and swinging his sword at Winter.
The sword went through Winter and her form seem to stretch following the sword before she vanished. Emerald screamed as the sword scrapped across her arms and was sent flying before she crashed into the ground. She gritted her teeth in pain and as her arms bled blood. Kira chuckled standing over her, "Just some advice; if you're going to try and copy someone's form, make sure you know everything about them so you don't get found out." He held his sword up "But that won't help you now."
Emerald stared as the weapon came down right at her. She could do nothing else but close her eyes waiting. Then suddenly she felt arms wrapped around her and her body jerking. She landed on the ground with someone supporting her. "It okay, we got yea."
Kira frowned when his weapon slammed into the ground. He just saw a black blur going over his target and his weapon hitting it but it vanished on contact. His weapon kept going and cracked the ground. He quickly lifted his weapon to block two dust gun blast coming his way. Then a voice called out, "Why don't you pick on someone who can fight back big guy?"
Kira hazed at his new opponent and chuckled, "Blondie, I prefer it that way. Just try and keep up now."
Mercury went low and did a breakdance looking move, using the special dust in his boots to send white streaks and attacks that destroyed the small Nevermores. When they were gone he was back to his feet and he saw that Winter had a new large glyph in the air behind her. He growled and ran at her in order to get an attack in before she had a chance to use it. What he didn't see was the glyph appearing under his feet before he was knocked up and into the air. As he tumbled in the air trying to control himself he saw Winter had already made her move. The glyph glowed bright before it turned and an armor arm appeared as if sticking out of it. The in hand was a large board sword bigger the Mercury. As he tumbled through the air Mercury watched in horror as the sword raised up before it swung down. He manages to avoid getting killed but the ghostly blade sliced right through his metal legs just below the knee. He cried out as he crashed to the ground while his legs clatter next to him. He raised himself up by his arms but he looked fearful as Winter stood up him with her sword ready to finish him. She didn't acknowledge him and looked at him as if he was a bug. Mercury never thought he would die like this but closed his eyes when Winter stabbed at him. To his surprise as well as Winter's something speed pass him and save his life.
Winter was stunned seeing her pray gone but followed the trail of falling rose pedals to see a young girl lowering Mercury to the ground. "Mercury! Are you okay!?" the girl asked before she saw the state of his legs. "Oh no your legs! I got to wrap them up before you bleed out!"
"Ruby!" Mercury called out, remembering her name from Emerald, as she panicked at his state. "I'm not going to bleed out! My legs are robotic!"
Ruby Rose looked down to see the boy was right. "oh…okay then." She shook her head and focused, "We're here to help. We're going to get Emerald too."
Winter pulled her weapon free and then turned her body to face the new girl. Ruby noticed this and faced Winter as well. Ruby pulled her weapon free and released the scythe. Winter kept eye contact before she asked, "Who are you, girl?"
Ruby replied simply "Ruby Rose."
"Ruby Rose," Winter repeated testing the name out on her tongue. She kept her gaze looked directly onto Ruby's own, "You have silver eyes."
Ruby blinked and had a feeling of Deja vu but focused on her opponent and held her weapon ready to fight.
And a look at a possible story. Now this one needs a bit of explaining in my opinion. For Naruto fans I don't need to explain what the Red Dawn is but for now we can talk of Winter and Kira. Winter is this world's Itachi but not as extreme at what she did…or is she?
I got this idea when watching one of the RWBY 'World of Remnant' videos about the academies. Ozpin mention that Atlas, Ironwood's school has been pressuring students to join his specialist taskforce and as this was said we say a colored 'shadow' what looked just like Winter. That got the gears in my head spinning and the rest came from there.
Kira is an OC for Kisame and is in-fact a shark faunas. His partnership will be explained more in the main story but I got a surprise for him. But who else will be in the Red Dawn? What role they play in the main story line and what other surprised do I have for you reader? Sorry no spoilers for now. But I hope everyone enjoyed this and want to see this become a real story.
