Last time.
Lilly held her right hand out and a Taka Candroid flew over, dropping 3 cell medals into her opened hand. As the Grimm began to run towards Lilly she began loading the cells into Medajalibur. Once she had finished loading she pushed the lever dropping the cells into the sword and then pulled the O scanner from her hip, running it down the side of the blade.
'Triple Scanning Charge!'
It called out as she placed the O scanner back on her belt and held the sword at the ready. Then as the Grimm was right on top of her, she struck!
"Seiya!"
Swinging at a diagonal line from top left to bottom right she slashed her sword down the Grimm and what everyone saw next both shocked and awed them. The Grimm that had stopped, as well as the two buildings behind it, where slanting with the blades strike! It lasted only a few seconds before all but the Grimm snapped back into place and the Grimm alone exploded, causing cell medals to rain down for a moment.
*end song*
Chapter four.
I breathed deeply as the cell medals stopped falling, I then de-henshined and fell forward, I would have fallen on my face had it not been for Fox grabbing me and putting my left arm over his shoulders. He smiled at me while nodding, I returned it in thanks for his support and soon Velvet was on my other side with my right arm over her own shoulders. Yatsuhashi came up and patted me on the back with a nod of his own and a small smile. Coco came up towards us, she smiled at me and lightly punched my chest "well-done superstar, but next time don't hog all the glory, alright" it was a joke and I smiled in return "I'll try" I replied as we smiled "are you going to run out of surprises for us?" "not anytime soon. I kind of surprised myself with that last bit of fighting" I stated.
Before we could continue there was a roar of cheers from a crowd across from us, it looked like the whole town was there and I blushed at the praise like the other times. "Yep, this is defiantly going to be a thing," I thought as we made our way over to the pile of cell medals that the 12 candroids had been making, we sat down as the cheers died down as well.
The people soon left to help out others that may have been injured or trapped in the rubble, while we began to talk. "what are we going to do with these?" Coco asked referring to the pile of cells "the only thing we can do, bring them back with us" I stated as they looked to me "why not destroy them?" Velvet asked "two reasons. One is if we did damage them a Pseudo-Yummy would be made. A Pseudo-Yummy is a yummy that has no other desire than to destroy, too dangerous. The second is that they would be safer at Beacon or where ever Ozpin wants to put them, away from anyone wanting to use their power for the wrong reasons. they can also be used as ammunition for my weapons, as you have just seen" I explained and they nodded in understanding as the last cell medal the candroids had collected was added to the pile, it was over a foot tall and over two feet wide.
"how will we transport them?" Fox asked bringing up a good question "anyone got a spare bag or something?" I asked and we all turned to Coco, seeing as she is a fashionista, she looked at us and shook her head in no. just then John came up to us with an old metal milk container that was about four feet tall and a foot wide, I couldn't help but see as the same one that Akira Date, Kamen Rider Birth, would use for collecting cells in the show. "I thought you could use this to carry those coin things, seeing as they are important enough for you to have these little guys look all over for them" John explained while petting a Gorilla Candroid "thank you very much" I thanked him but he waved it off saying "it's nothing, I should be saying thank you for saving this town" "we did what was right" I replied and he nodded in return.
"well how about staying for a while?" he asked but we shook our heads in no "as nice as that would be, we have to leave and report everything that has happened" Coco explained and John nodded "I understand, I wish you would stay but you have to go, so I won't keep you" he replied as I, Velvet and the candroids put the cell medals into the milk container.
Soon we had everything packed and ready to leave, I was able to stand on my own after a while of regaining my energy. We were about to board the bullhead when I felt a tug on my pants leg, I looked down to see the two Faunus kids and a few other kids as well, both human and Faunus. Now that I had a moment to look at them I could see what types they were. The Boy had small floppy ears on each side of his head, leading me to believe he was a dog Faunus of some kind. The elder sister had fox ears, along with a cute button nose.
I knelt down to their level to see what they wanted, the boy looked to be shy while holding the girl's hand. "yes, what is it you need little ones?" I spoke to them in a soft voice getting a light blush from the two "we wanted to thank you for saving us" the girl spoke up and I smiled at them "you are welcome; I only did what I thought was right" I stated to them. The bot spoke up next "do you think we can be like you?" he questioned "me? no" I replied and they looked down "you can be better" I continued getting them to snap back up to me "everyone is different and can achieve their own goals, my goals can be different from yours or yours different from mine, so don't follow someone else, make your own path" I said and they looked amazed until the girl spoke "but what if we fail?" "You always pass failure on the way to success, just don't let it hold you back" I replied placing my hand on her head and smiling. I got up and walked up to the Bullhead with the others waiting inside, as the doors closed I looked to the kids gathered and gave a smile to them along with a nod, then the doors closed.
We soon were in the air and off back to Beacon, as I sat down I noticed Coco giving me a cheeky smile. "so~ miss superstar has some little fans huh~?" she teased "I just told them the truth, anyone can become a hero with the right motivation" I relied while the candroids that had come with us climbed onto anything they wanted, two Taka's where resting on Yatsuhashi, one on his shoulder while the other was on his head, he didn't look bothered by them.
"so do you do that a lot?" Coco asked while petting a Kujaku Candroid "do what?" I asked while I had a Taka in one hand and a Denki Unagi wrapped around my bicep "tell people something inspirational" "if by that you mean to speak my mind and tell the truth, then yes I do" I replied as I leant back, but I flinch at a pain from my back.
The others noticed Lilly flinch and Velvet spotted some red growing over Lilly's left shoulder "your bleeding!" she said pointing to said blood. The Candroids got off of everyone as Coco walked over and helped Lilly take off her shirt, while Yatsuhashi and Fox looked away so as to spare her some dignity. Coco found four claw marks along Lilly's shoulder and upper back, they weren't deep enough for stitches but just enough to leave a good amount of blood. "you got some good marks on your back superstar, must have been from saving those kids. Velvet love can you hand me the first aid kit" Coco spoke and Velvet did as asked, setting it and herself next to the two to help.
"doesn't look like you need stitches, but still needs to be cleaned, thanks love," Coco said thanking Velvet as she handed her some cotton swabs and medical gel, she got to work cleaning the wounds. A few moments later and the wound was cleaned and wrapped with thanks from Lilly, everyone soon went back to how they were before as a comfortable silence filled the air.
Hours later at 5:00pm we arrived back at Beacon with the sun just about to start setting, the candroids took refuge in our bags as we made our way through beacons halls and to the elevator, going up to Ozpin's office. When we arrived we walked up to the desk, with Ozpin in his seat and Glynda by his side, waiting for us.
"welcome back. I take it the mission was a success?" Ozpin asked as he greeted us, Coco stepped forward "a few scrapes and close calls, but we accomplished taking down the Metallic Grimm and retrieving the sword sir" she confirmed to him and he nodded in approval "if you would give a detailed report please" he replied and we did as he asked, while filling in on parts that others didn't see. He chuckled as I spoke about my little venture of leading the Grimm through a house and Glynda said I did well to use what I had at the time. We soon finished our report and the pair of professors looked very pleased with us "you have all done a very good job and have gathered great information on this new enemy, you all deserve some rest and seeing as tomorrow is Friday you may take the day off" we smiled at that.
"well now I just have one thing left to do then" I spoke up getting everyone's attention "and that is?" Glynda asked "finding a way to carry this" I said raising Medajalibur in both hands "it's going to be a pain to carry all the time, I wish I had some way to store it on my person" and as I said that Medajalibur began to softly glow before fading away from my very hands.
We all blinked for a few seconds before I started looking around and then back to the others asking "I wasn't the only one that just saw that, right?" they nodded in reply "how did that happen, where did it go?" Velvet asked what we were all thinking.
"I wonder" Ozpin spoke out loud getting our attention "Lilly, think about having Medajalibur in your hand just for a moment" I looked at him questionably before doing as he said and in a matter of seconds Medajalibur returned to my hand, we looked on in shock. "it seems that part of your semblance is storage, you are able to store items into a small pocket dimension. We won't know where or for certain without a test or two. A very useful semblance if I must say" Ozpin explained to us "so I can store just about anything and draw it out wherever and whenever I want. That seems to fit me with my arsenal of weapons and eventual collection of cores" I replied and sent Medajalibur back into my storage dimension.
"well now that, that is taken care off I suggest you all go and get some rest" Ozpin said and everyone but Lilly walked towards to elevator "Lilly?" called Velvet as she noticed her friend not moving "I just need to talk to Ozpin then I'll head to bed" she replied and Velvet nodded before leaving with her teammates. Once alone Lilly looked to Ozpin and took a seat in front of him, careful of her injuries.
"you know, you should put a coffee table and a pair of sofas in here for when you talk to people" Lilly commented while looking at the room before looking back to Ozpin "I might just do that, people do seem to need to sit down at times when having meetings" he replied making Glynda pinch the bridge of her nose "but onto the fact of the matter you wanted to speak with me about" he said while taking a sip of his mug.
Lilly nodded before speaking "there are a few things, first is about some of the new students coming to Beacon this year" Ozpin nodded for her to continue as Glynda took out a notepad "first is a young Jaune Arc, he faked his papers" this got Glynda's attention "then I will have him removed from-" "don't" Glynda was cut off by Lilly and gave her a questioning look "he may not have the training or his aura unlocked yet, but he will make a fine leader" Lilly explained "what makes you so sure?" Ozpin asked "he may not have the background but he has what all potential hunters have. Heart. And with the help of his teammates, he gains the strength and courage to face his fears" she stated and Ozpin nodded in approval and asked "teammates?" "Team JNPR, Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Pyrrha Nikos and Lie Ren" she informed him before moving on.
"the next is Blake Belladonna, a cat Faunus with a past in the white fang if you can even call them that anymore," Lilly said with a side comment that got both professors attention "what do you mean by that?" Ozpin asked "I respected the Fang before they swapped leaders. To me, the white fang stood for protection and equality amongst all. This group is not the White Fang of back then and so I don't see it as the white fang. I like to see others through their actions with my own eyes rather than the eyes of others" Lilly explained and got a proud look from both adults along with understanding.
"now back to Blake. She was practically "born into" the white fang, back when it was protests and equality, but she got swept up with the changes 5 years ago and soon was stealing dust along with the other White Fang members, but she never hurt anyone to my knowledge. During a raiding of a cargo train owned by the Schnee Dust Company, carrying shipments of Dust, she discovers her partner plans to blow the train up, along with the crew. Blake starts to have doubts, so after fighting a Spider Droid Blake decides to sever their connection and the train car, saying goodbye as the train pulls away without her partner. She decided she no longer wanted to use her skills to aid in their violence. Instead, she would dedicate her new life to become a Huntress." Lilly explained, "she has a good heart and when she learns to trust her teammates, she will be a great Huntress" "I see, so she would have faked some of her information on her application. But seeing as she has had a bad past I suppose it would be alright" Ozpin stated before Lilly nodded and continued.
"now the last one is someone Glynda will meet sometime soon" she started getting Glynda's attention "she wears a red hooded cloak like her mother's white one, her mother being someone you both knew" this had them both looking at Lilly with wide eyes "you don't mean?" Lilly continued answering Glynda's half-asked question "I do, yes, and she has her eyes" now they both had no doubts about who Lilly was speaking about "Ruby Rose, daughter of Summer Rose" she clarified to them "she is two years younger than the school age limit, but she is more than perfect to come to Beacon. She has the heart, soul, strength and mind of a true huntress. The only thing missing is the knowledge and experience needed, but other than that she will be a great team leader" Lilly stated to the pair in front of her.
"when and where will she be?" Ozpin asked "unknown of when, but it will be soon before the new school year starts. As for where it will be, is when she fights some robbers, led by Roman Torchwick, that steal dust from a dust store called "From Dust Till Dawn" in which after beating the small fish will go after Roman who jumps to the rooftops. He will be picked up by a bullhead and throw a Dust crystal at Ruby's feet, with a shot from said criminal that makes the dust explode, that is when Glynda intervenes. A short fight later and Roman with his accomplice escape, Glynda then takes Ruby to an interrogation room which you, Ozpin, will enter later to talk with our little Rose and the rest you can figure out" Lilly explains to them and they nod in understanding.
"her team?" Ozpin asked "Team RWBY, Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long" Lilly listed and the two adults took interest in the odd mix "Miss Rose is the leader correct?" "Indeed, though she will have some bumps at first with her partner Weiss, although I am hoping to smooth out how they meet. you also give Ruby a little talk while professor port talks to Weiss on their first day of school, helping them both to understand their roles in the team. But like I said I'm hoping to make it not as rough by altering their meeting slightly" Lilly answered Ozpin and got a nod from him "is there anything else?" he asked as Lilly stretched a bit.
She took on a bit more of a serious face as she got up and walked up to the windows behind the desk. "the metallic Grimm, they weren't meant to happen" she started with a grave voice that shouldn't have come from someone so young "if Grimm are able to fuse with the cell medals then that means that the same can happen with the cores as well" "you never said what the difference in cell and core medals was" Glynda said coming to her side as Lilly looked out to the vast view while answering "think of the cells as grains of sand, vast but so little despite their great power. Now think of what a core would be like in comparison" "a rock?" "bigger" "a bolder?" "bigger" "a hill?" Glynda kept making a guess but Lilly only shook her head before answering "a mountain" this made both go wide-eyed at the implication of how much more powerful a Grimm can get. "one core is a mountain of power that will continue to regrow what power it loses, while a cell medal of sand can only be used once before fading away into nothing. Imagine what would happen if a Grimm was able to get more than one core" now that had even Ozpin deeply worried as he took a long sip of his mug.
"there are 30 cores out there and who knows where they are" Lilly spoke looking out into the distance "28" came Ozpin's voice making Lilly look to him "what?" "there are 28, these came while you were gone on your mission" he stated as he held up two cores, for Lilly to see. It was the Sai and Denki Unagi core medals, Lilly took them from his hand with a smile while saying "have I mentioned how awesome you are? Because you are super awesome" Ozpin chuckled at that and stood up next to her "thank you. You never explained how the Grimm can use the medals in the first place though" he reminded her as she looked back to the window.
"you have a nice view here, but to what you said. What I said was anything with a desire could be used and the Grimm's do have one desire, destruction. It's only because they aren't living and keep adapting that they aren't making yummies when they are infused with the power, but the more their desire is fulfilled the more cells are made and the more powerful they become" Lilly explained as a thought came to her "I need to take a look at a Ridevendor and candroids" "what for?" Ozpin asked at the change of topic "they have a network inside them, if I could access it I could use the candroids to help search for the medals or the medal-infused Grimm" Lilly explained her theory "if you think you can I will introduce you to a professor we have, she could help you in learning more about the technology you use" he offered and Lilly nodded "that would be most welcomed, thank you".
They stood looking out the window for a moment before Lilly brought up another matter "the cell medals will have to be stored somewhere where no one will look or even know about" she pointed out "I have an idea of where they can be stored far away that only I know of, I will tell you the location tomorrow" Ozpin stated and Lilly nodded "just as long as no one can get to them but you and me that is fine" she nodded and turned to the door, but stopped halfway. "you said my semblance can store away anything I need, correct?" "that is what I theorise yes, but we will need to run some tests to be sure" Ozpin replied, "what about controlling said items?" Lilly asked, "it is possible that whatever you store or have stored will be under your control, as well as at your beck and call. why?" Ozpin asked.
Lilly took out Medajalibur from her storage dimension and placed it on Ozpin's desk before moving a good distance away, she then raised her hand and tried to will her sword to her hand without it teleporting. It began to rattle after a few moments and soon began to be dragged along the table, before shooting across the room towards Lilly, who "eeped" and caught it before stumbling backwards, nearly falling on her butt. She looked up feeling rather pleased with herself "well that shows I can control the items, now for a real test" Lilly said as she walked over to the milk container with the cell medals inside.
She placed her hand on top of the container and pushed her aura into it, after a moment it disappeared, she then brought it back after a moment. She then moved away like before and held out her hand, concentrating. Soon a cell medal appeared in her hand and she jumped with joy "yes! With this I can store my weapons and ammo as well as summon them from distances" she explained and sent the cell back into the container. "very impressive for only just finding out what part of your semblance is, but you must keep training to properly control it. You may also take tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday off for rest and research" Glynda said as Lilly stored a few cells, Medajalibur, the OOO Driver and the five cores she now had away into her pocket dimension "I know, I will and thanks" Lilly replied as she picked up her bag and headed to the elevator calling out "goodnight Ojiisan, Obasan" as the doors closed.
"Ojiisan?" "Obasan?" Ozpin and Glynda both asked out loud as the young girl was out of sight.
Lilly soon exited the lift and walked to her room, arriving just as the sun had set. She entered then locked the door behind her, she placed her bag at the foot of her bed allowing the Candroids coming out to look around, then she headed to the bathroom after getting her sleeping wear. She took off her clothes, plasters and bandages to see that only light cuts and fading bruises remained, she then stepped into the soothing water for a relaxing shower. After a good soak, Lilly got dry, dressed and then headed to bed, with the candroids powering down around the room as she fell asleep at 9:00pm.
The next day Lilly woke up to the candroids gently pulling at her blanket and clothes while making little beeping and whirling noises, she looked to the clock showing that it was 8:30am. Lilly thanked them seeing that she hadn't set her clock last night, then got changed into her clothes and eat breakfast. she then left to go see Ozpin at his office, while telling the candroids to roam around but not to get into trouble. She made her way to his office only to stop at seeing him exiting the lift along with Glynda, she made her way to them.
"good morning" she greeted them and they returned it with their own greetings "so are we going to see this professor?" Lilly asked as they walked down the corridors, the funny thing about Beacon is the show didn't show all the complicated hallways and other rooms within its structure.
"yes, we are heading to her lab now. Before we arrive though I must inform you that she quite…energetic if I must say. She gets excited about new discoveries, but knows when to keep a secret, so don't worry about her telling anyone" Ozpin explained to her as they came to a pair of double doors with "LAB" written above them "one last thing, she tends to-" "BOOOOOM!" he was cut off by the doors being blown off of their hinges with a huge explosion, the doors would have hit them if Glynda had not used her semblance to stop them in mid-air and using them to block the flames of the explosion.
Once everything had calmed down a woman in her late 20's, with bright violet hair, light green eyes and pale skin tone, was standing where the door once stood in a lab coat and with soot covering most of her body.
"-make things explode," Ozpin said finishing what he was saying before the explosion happened, then took a sip of his mug. "Lilly allow me to introduce Professor Pamela Pastel, the best there is" "and most suicidal there is" Glynda added in a whispered so that said professor didn't hear her, but she did "and damn proud of it Glyndy!" said woman replied with a smile "I've told you a million times its Glynda!" Glynda replied through gritted teeth "sure, sure Glyndy, whatever you say. Now, who is this you have brought me?" Pamela said looking at Lilly.
"this is Lilly, we will explain everything inside, if you would" Ozpin answered indicating towards the lab "oh? oh! I understand" Pamela replied and lead the three into her lab, while Glynda placed the doors back where they belonged like nothing had happened.
Once inside Lilly saw all kinds of equipment and futuristic-looking technology, most of which she wouldn't know how to use without being shown how at least once. They walked through the second pair of doors and entered through them into a room that looked nearly identical to the other one, but once inside the doors clamped shut behind them with metal bolts. "this is the secret lab room, the first one is for general use, but this one is for secrets that are not to be put on any computers linked to any networks" Pamela explained to Lilly who had a questioning face.
"so what is it that's so secret you needed me to come in here and what does it have to do with little Lilly?" Pamela asked. They then went on to explain about Lilly, how she got here, the multiverse theory, the Kamen Rider gear and everything else, to say she was excited was an understatement.
"really!? Other dimensions, new technology, new Grimm, HOW EXCITING! What's your world like? Are our worlds similar in any way? Hold old do you get? How advanced is your technology? How-" Pamela went on and on to ask questions at a rapid-fire pace as she looked Lilly over, poking skin, shining a light on her and even nearly pulling her shirt off. She was only stopped by Glynda lifting her up with her semblance, making her wiggle like a worm "calm down! She will answer your questions as long as you keep from manhandling her. So take a breath" Glynda scolded her and placed her on the ground after she took a calming breath.
Lilly answered what she was able to from the rapid fire questions and that calmed Pamela down enough to talk properly. Ozpin spoke up before anything else could be said "Lilly would like to learn more about her weapons and technology she is using without other people, that she doesn't want, learning about it. So we brought her here to introduce you so you can help her, would you accept?" "are you kidding? Or course I would!" Pamela said with a squeal "don't worry, I won't tell a soul about anything we learn from within these walls. Anything that is put down on computers will be put on a memory driver for you to keep on your person or stored away in secret wherever you chose, the same for anything put on paper, and the information erased from the computers" Pamela said to Lilly while grasping her hands in her own.
"Thank you, this means a lot to me" Lilly replied with a smile "no need, we will both be learning something new with this" Pamela replied with her own smile. "seeing as you both are ready to get started we'll leave you to it. I also had one of the staff bring a Ridevendor down while we were talking to help you get started, it should be just outside the doors" Ozpin said and opened said doors to show he was right, a Ridevendor was there, waiting to be wheeled in, which Glynda did so with her powers.
"Seeing as you have everything you need we will take our leave, let us know what you learn. Oh, and Lilly here is the coordinates to the secret storage room we talked about last night" Ozpin said as he handed Lilly a piece of paper with numbers on, after memorising it she tore the paper up. With that Ozpin and Glynda left with the doors sealing behind them, leaving Lilly and Pamela to their work.
They first did scans of the Ridevendor, each candroid, the OOO Driver and Medajalibur before taking an in-depth look at the Ridevendor by removing the plating on the back. They were able to find the network for the technology and then made a modification to Lilly's laptop with Remnants technology, making it a compact supercomputer linked to the candroids. They tested it by looking through the eyes of a Taka candroid.
They continued to look into the technology until Monday when Lilly went back to training, but now she had Wednesdays and Fridays off to do more research with Pamela, who was always excited to see her.
This continued for the next two weeks until the new school year students arrived, which is where Lilly is now as she watched the student disembark on the landing zone.
I watched as they all exited the aircraft, I was looking for a few certain people, I had already spotted Blake who was hiding in the shade of a tree with a book. I kept looking until I saw who I was looking for, a tall girl with blond hair and a short girl with a red hooded cloak, the pair of girls really didn't look that much alike but could see the fondness for each other in their eyes.
Soon the blond was taken off with a crowd, while accidentally knocking the smaller one, making her get dizzy and fall over some luggage. I pulled my scroll out at this point to record what happened next, I stopped when an explosion and a call of "unbelievable!" rang out.
I then made my way over, to meet with the R, W and B of future team RWBY.
