Chapter 13: See You Later
(Theatre room)
"Is everyone ok?" asked Ethan to his guests who were still drying their eyes from watching the Giant sacrifice himself.
"Y-Yeah, were fine." Sniffled Ruby. "We all knew that it was the only way to save everyone-
"But it still hurts watching a friend die," finished Ethan, making Ruby and everyone else nod. "I understand how you're all feeling right now, but there's still something you have to see, and I'm sure you're gonna love it."
Without saying anything else, Ethan activated the screen and watched with the others.'
(On screen)
(one year later)
It had been one year since the Giant's sacrifice had saved everyone, a statue of the massive machine holding a young girl in his palm had been built and placed in the park for everyone to see and on it an inscription that read the 'Iron Giant' could be seen.
Taiyang was currently sitting on a park bench admiring the statue that he himself had built in honor of the person who had changed his life.
"Your best work yet honey, no doubt about it." Said the voice of his wife, who came up behind him and wrapped her arms around his neck. Turning, he stared lovingly into a pair of silver eyes that belonged to none other than Summer Rose.
(Off screen)
"Yaaayyy! Mom and dad got together!" cheered Ruby and Yang, happy that their father and mother were together again, even if it was in another universe.
Tai could only look longingly at his wife in screen and hoped that she and his counterpart would be happy for a long time.
(On screen)
"You think this is my best? Really?" asked Tai with a raised eyebrow.
Summer chuckled awkwardly and tried to answer without hurting her husband's feelings. "You know next to that…bug…thing. You know the one with the….e on honey, time to go!" she called at Ruby while Tai tried not to laugh at her obvious attempt to change the subject.
The blonde man looked to his new step-daughter and found her play-wrestling with her new friends on the grass. She was currently being held down by a girl with blonde hair and lilac eyes while another with white hair in a side ponytail was trying to catch an amber eyed girl with black hair that had a bow in it. Hearing her mother call, Ruby reluctantly got up and said goodbye to her friends.
"See you later guys!" she said as she ran to her parents.
"See you later Ruby!" called the blonde girl while waving her hand.
"Hey Ruby," said Tai when she got to them. "The General sent this to you." He handed her a package.
"What is it?" she wondered out loud, shaking it a little.
Tai told her, "He said it was the only part recovered. He thought you should have it."
Opening the package, Ruby found the screw that connected the Giant's jaw to his face. "I miss him," she said while looking at the screw then at the state with a sad expression. Her parents hugged her gently and made their way back home.
(That night, Ruby's room)
Ruby was asleep in her bed when the sound of something falling on the floor woke her up. Groggily she sat up and scanned her room for anything out of place. Looking to her bedside she saw that the package with the Giant's piece was gone. Climbing out of bed, Ruby found the box on the floor, but when she picked it up, she gasped in surprise when she saw in was empty.
Frantically looking around, she froze when she heard a tapping by her window. Ruby nearly burst into tears when she saw that the screw was tapping at the window while a familiar blue light was beeping from it. Quickly making her way to the window and opening it, the screw rolled a little and when it found no more resistance it jumped from the window and landed on the ground where it began rolling away.
"See you later." Ruby said and waved while smiling happily as she watched the blue light continue to blink as it got further and further away.
(Off screen)
"There's no way," said Weiss in disbelief while secretly praying it was true.
"That explosion should have destroyed it," said Jaune while Nora was practically shaking in her seat with excitement. Ruby and Penny were no better, as soon as they saw the familiar blue light begin to blink they knew, but they had to see it to be sure.
(On screen)
Thousands of miles away in a wasteland covered in nothing but snow, strange tracks could be seen moving in a singular direction. Soon tracks that looked like footprints became visible and a single metal leg was seen hopping forward in the snow, soon other metal parts were seen moving towards an object in distance as well.
The object was none other than the Iron Giant's head, the antenna protruding from his head was calling his body parts from all around the world. Slowly the Giant's eyes opened and managed to give a smile as he saw his body parts returning to him, soon he'd be repaired and able to return to his friend.
(Screen darkens)
"He's alive! I knew it! I knew!" cheered Ruby, her somber mood all but vanished with everyone else's as she danced around with Penny and Weiss in her arms, along with Nora who quickly joined the trio.
"Wow, not even a massive bomb can keep him down." Said Blake with a smile on her face. Yang nodded in agreement, a massive bomb like that would have decimated anything in their world, but the Giant had no problem surviving it and just needed to put himself back together.
"So, know that we're finished watching that world, are we going to watch another one?" asked Ozpin.
"You're correct Ozpin," answered Ethan. "But not right now, I'll be sending you back to your homes for a while and will bring you back when it's time to view the next universe." He told them and with a snap of his fingers each of them began to light up before vanishing.
"Thank you, Ethan! We really enjoyed watching this one!" shouted Ruby just before disappearing with everyone else.
"Now that they're gone, which universe should I let them watch next?" Wondered the other worldly being to himself.
"AHA!" he snapped his fingers excitedly. "I know just the one," Ethan said to himself and began preparing the theatre for the next viewing. Next time team RWBY, JNPR and the other arrive, they'll witness quite the Rumble in the Bronx.
A/N: That's right!!! Next time we the RWBY cast returns they'll be watching 'Rumble in the Bronx', one of my favorite action movies of all time. Just a little warning, I'll be busy with assignments and work for a while so I might not update soon. If I don't update in a while don't worry, this fic won't die, I'll just be on hiatus.
That's all for now, thanks all so much for reading, liking and following this story, I really really appreciate it.
See you all next time. Ja Ne!
