The Higher you rise
The Further you fall
Pride is a deadly sin
Warning, this chapter contains references to rape, as well as torture and gore
I growled at myself as I continued my path over the city of vale.
The Nightsky was filled with stars, the shattered moon glistening among them.
As I had been soaring through the streets, I realized several things.
The most concerning of which, was my impact on Beacon.
All that I cared about in canon was already complete, so I could change everything how I wanted.
Problem was, that I had been labeled as an enemy of beacon, and by extension, team RWBY.
It had been 3 days since I had been seen by RWBY, and my short conflict with Glynda, in that time I had realized how strong I was compared to all of them, or rather.
How weak they were to me.
If Glynda was considered strong, then how was I meant to find a good fight?
As far as I knew, the only people who could challenge me were Ozpin and Salem themselves, but both of them were the leaders of factions, both of which considered me an enemy.
Made it easier to fight them, harder to avoid a death match or get to them.
While my old appearance, before I had become a Faunus was known as an ally to Ozpin, I didn't have that appearance anymore, even though I still had the mask.
And my Dragonborn mask was already considered a criminal.
It had been a mistake to check up on the RWBY team because it ruined what were practically my only 3 plans.
1: Get into beacon, either as a teacher or a student. But that was quickly becoming more and more difficult.
2: Have by Debut in the events of Black and White, for a badass entrance.
3: Start a Harem with the RWBY girls and progress from there. That had been one of my original plans and even had a quest.

Note: The rewards for this quest are given upfront once the objective is complete
Yeah, a Quest for a Harem.
But 1000 harem members? I didn't even remember the names of 100 girls, 1000 would be impossible.
Unless I got Misaka and all her clones to like me. Then I'd get thousands just from the clones.
Very similar to Gamer 32 in that respect. He is yet to complete it.
Gamer 32? Who's that?
Wait, aren't all of the other Gamers dead?
That was what I believed, but have since been corrected.
Gamer 32, codename: Leviathan, is still alive and progressing through his own adventure.
He is currently level 221, and generally has higher stats than yours, with the exception of STR, VIT, and AP where you exceed him.
However, in combat, you would lose.
Damn, Gamer 32 sounds tough.
I shook my head, back to my sulking!
3 of my goals had been completely ruined by my carelessness.
But it wasn't unsalvageable, just… harder to begin.
I groaned and held my head in my hands.
Planning what to do was definitely a pain in the ass.
Shaking my head I decided to keep leveling up and search for the answers regarding my Species. But before I could leave, I heard a shrill scream, that froze me in my tracks.
"No! Don't touch her!"
I frowned, someone was in danger. Looking around I determined the direction of the source and flew quickly.
VELVET
Velvet's life sucked.
It was that simple.
Looking at the 4 goons that had cornered them, fear was quickly seeping into her heart.
"Looky what we have here. A Faunus and a student from beacon." The first Goon said.
Coco coughed, choking on her own blood, this wasn't the first time they had been cornered by Racists or Thugs, but this was the first time those Goons, were stronger than they were.
Each of them had their Aura's unlocked, their semblances mastered, and weapons armed. Coco didn't have her weapons, and Velvet didn't have the time to learn their techniques either.
The first goon was tall, ugly, strongly built like a brick wall, and used his bare hands in combat, he was the strongest of the 4, and had been the one to take down Coco.
The 2nd Goon was lean, athletically built, ugly as the first, and wielded a spear in combat, he was the quickest of the four.
The 3rd Goon was short but stocky, like a dwarf from the fantasy books. His hair was long and ungroomed, and the ugliest of the lot. He used a large hammer in combat and had broken Coco's ribs.
The 4th Goon was medium in height, build, and had average hair, but he was skilled, he wore a black and red business suit, similar to what the White Fang wore, but unlike the White Fang, he didn't cover his identity, and used a sword in combat.
"Please, just, take me, let Velvet go," Coco said, grunting, Velvet's eyes widened as she looked at her leader. "No, you can't do that!" she shouted in protest, but Coco ignored her, and the Goons laughed. "I think we'll just take both of ya. Always wanted to screw a bunny girl, how about you guys?" the 1st Goon asked, and the 2nd and 4th Goons nodded in agreement. Dread filled Velvets heart like lead.
These thugs were more than Thieves or racists.
They were rapists.
"No! Don't touch her!" Coco yelled as the 4th goon stepped forward and reached for her. "Stand aside girl, you'll get your turn soon enough" Goon 3 said gruffly.
Velvet tried to move, to run, but she couldn't, he limbs didn't obey her, all she could do was stare on in horror as the 4th goon reached out to touch her clothes.
"Like the feeling of my semblance," The 2nd Goon asked, "Paralysis, it comes in handy"
"No! Velvet!" Coco yelled as she tried to stand, but the 1st Goon grabbed her and held her back, "Watch and learn kiddo" he said as he grabbed Coco's hair and forced her to face Velvet.
The 4th Goon grinned like it was his birthday as he grabbed Velvet's clothes and started to rip them apart, tearing off her bra in a single movement. Once he was done Velvet was left in tattered clothes the only thing protecting her modesty being her Panties.
Slowly, the 4th Goon reached out to fondle her breasts, and Velvet struggled, and fought, but she couldn't break free from his semblance.
With the last of her strength, Velvet moved her mouth, screaming as loud as she could.
"PLEASE! STOP!"
Almost instantly, a dark cloud fell over the group, silence accompanying it.
Then, a hard, harsh voice, filled with hostility and anger spoke, so malicious it make Velvet shiver. The thunder accompanying it.
"Hands off"
HUNTER
I growled as I descended slowly, looking down at the 4 Rapists that had cornered, beaten, and now stripped Velvet.
The Sky above quickly darkened, and the clouds gathered.
Activating 30% of my Demonic powers, I snarled "Hands off" Thunder boomed in response to my words, illuminating my shadow upon the goons.
Looking up the Business goon's eyes widened, and without a moment's hesitation, I held out my right hand, and shot a lightning bolt straight at him, sending him flying away.
Landing in a kneeling position between Velvet, and the goons who were holding who I assumed was Coco, I stood up, and faced them.
"Don't interrupt us, Faunus filth" the midget goon said, hatred clear in his voice.
I narrowed my eyes at the midget, not even bothering to summon my weapons or my gear.
Only one thing stopped me from massacring them now.
"I will give you one warning, and one warning, only, leave or suffer" I warned, my voice dripping with poison.
The Business man laughed, and soon the other 3 joined him. "I guess I have my answer then," I muttered, before raising my Darkness to 50%.
Instantly the difference was noticed, my stats soared, and with a quick glance at them, I grinned evilly.

As the dark markings of Unleashed Wrath covered the right side of my face, and body I felt an ocean of fury, anger, and well wrath, filling me.
The only thing that kept me from going berserk was Gamers Mind
The Goons fell silent, as they looked at me with fear in their pathetic eyes.
Walking forward slowly, quietly, I looked up at the businessman. "Suffer" I repeated myself, my voice filled with the wrath I could barely contain.
Turning my focus to the other weaklings, I decided to give them the retribution they deserved.
In an instant, I had sent the tallest, and the shortest Goons flying into the walls like the pathetic sacks of meat they were, the sound of crunching bones filled the air as they vanished.
Ignoring the terrified faces of both Coco and Velvet, I turned to look at the last 2 Goons.
The businessman growled, before raising his hand and shooting a bolt of lightning at me, and unlike magic or dust, it was real lightning, meaning it moved at the speed of light.
It struck me, faster than I could react, and pushed me back, but strangely enough, It did nothing.
I paid it no attention and stalked forward to the pest who had dared to strike me. Stopping once I was 3 feet away "Weak" I growled, before raising my hand and impaling him in the shoulder, using the darkness to pin him against the wall.
My head shot to the right as I heard the leanest of the 4 trying to escape, releasing the businessman, I walked towards him, moving much faster than I should've. In a second I was in front of him, "No Escape" I said, before grabbing him by the neck, and without a word, I set him alight with the black flames Hellblaze.
After a moment of agonizing screaming, I judged the ant had suffered enough, without even turning around I tossed him into the businessman, a small shockwave erupting from the impact, followed by the sound of bodies falling to the ground.
Slowly, I turned around, receding my demonic powers for the sake of the two women I had saved until the only trace of it was the devastation it had caused.
Breathing slowly, as I felt my Wrath recede, I looked at Velvet and Coco, before quickly looking away a blush growing on my face.
"Mrs… Rabbit… your clothes…" I managed and was quickly rewarded by an embarrassed squeak from Velvet, without a word I summoned a Black T-shirt and tossed it in her direction, hopefully, she caught it.
"Its okay… you can look now…"
Looking back at Velvet and Coco, I saw Velvet had put on my shirt, a blush clear on her face already in embarrassment, while Coco looked at me with a mix of fear and admiration. "She's Velvet Scarlatina and I'm Coco Adel, what's your name?" Coco asked, and I shrugged, "Name's Hunter. Nice to meet you", Coco frowned and Velvet tilted her head. "Uhh, what?" I asked, and Coco shook her head, "No last name?", with a small jolt, I realized I, in fact, did not have a last name.
'Game, what's Latin for Gold?'
I smiled, "Actually, I do have one, my name's Hunter Aurum"

'Well that's useful'
"Hunter Aurum, Nice name, Aurum means gold right?" Velvet asked, and I nodded in response, "Bit on the nose but I like it" Coco added.
"You must be well trained, you took out those thugs like they were nothing!" Velvet said, and Coco nodded in agreement, "Yeah, with that badass semblance of yours! What's it called?", with mild surprise I realized they had mistaken Darkness for a semblance, I guess it was understandable since they didn't know about the existence of magic, much less a multiverse. "It's called Darkness, I can control and create dark energy in multiple different ways, those black flames you saw? Part of my semblance, just like the form you saw me use." Coco's eyes widened, and Velvet's eyebrows raised, "That's one broken semblance. And what's with those scales? Are you some kind of Dragon Faunus or something?" Coco asked, I shrugged, "No Idea, I don't really know what I am, so my guess is as good as yours.", Glancing around I said, "Now, sorry ladies, but I've got places to be." Turning back with a bow I smirked, "Till next time lovelies.", But Coco held up her hands, "Wait, can we have your number? So we could train sometime?" I shook my head, "Sorry, but I don't have a scroll", Velvet frowned, "Why not?", I shrugged, summoning my darkness wings, "As far as the world knows, I don't exist. But feel free to tell team RWBY about this meeting"
And with that, I was gone into the sky.
?
It prowled through the undergrowth, slowly, carefully, It could sense it. The one who bore HIS blood.
It passed by lesser Grimm, killing them without another thought, young and weak as they were, any Grimm that lived long enough could potentially pose a threat to him. And he wouldn't allow that.
Changing his form, his claws turned to nails, his scales and feathers vanished in black smoke, his snout shrunk, flattening against his face, his wings vanishing in a puff of smoke, as his bones shifted and shrunk, skin spread and covered his skull until he stood on two legs as the humans would.
His skin was bone white, his hair black as the night sky, and his eyes empty as the void itself.
Stepping onto the dirt road, he sighed in contentment, a privilege all Grimm who aged over 1000 had gained.
Not only did they gain a conscience, emotions, and intelligence, but they also gained the ability to transform, to change their appearance, both into a stronger form, and a human form, while he didn't spend nearly as much time in his human form as his eldest brother, he spent a good chunk of time in it, and journeyed down the path, and past a village.
He paid it no mind, the destructive hunger that marked his youth bearing no control over him anymore, and continued on his journey to his target.
Finally, as the sun began to set, he saw it.
A young human, of the age 17, bearing golden scales, hair, and eyes, walking down the streets with a merry tone.
The Magic of this one was strong, pure, and raw. A multitude of potential resided within him, the power of Darkness, thunder, and much more slumbering within him.
He would end him before he grew too strong.
Walking up to him, he nodded to the Golden one, who nodded in return before walking past him.
Stopping, he grinned a savage grin, as the Golden one stopped, and slowly turned around. "Who are you?" The golden one asked, turning around himself, the Grimm answered.
"My name is Azrael, and you, boy, will die by my hand"
The boy's eyes widened, and almost instantly, the power of Darkness appeared around him, forming strange patterns alongside his right half.
Raising an eyebrow Azrael looked at the darkness, If Grimm were made of Shadow, that Darkness was the power of the Void, the Malice, power, and evil that resided within those markings alone surpassed the destructive nature of hundreds of young Grimm, the dark power purer then even the Dark Queen.
Lightning started to spark around the stranger's hands and forearms, and emitted from his eyes in golden bolts. A mask appeared on the boy's face, gauntlets covering his forearms, and an Iron spear appeared in the boy's hands, crackling with lightning.
Azrael laughed, his own dark aura flaring up in an instant.
Looking at the boy Azrael said, "Your death approaches"
HUNTER
3RD
(This Means that I will be writing from a perspective that is focused on Hunter, but detached at the same time.)
Hunter felt only fear as he stared at the Grimm before him.
Not only was it in Human form, but it had spoken, giving him a name that chilled him to the bone.
Azrael
Azrael was the angel of death in the Bible, the Grim reaper, death itself. He took the souls of the deceased and led them to the afterlife.
One of the 4 Archangels, he was a member of God's elite troop.
If this Grimm's namesake was Azrael, then he very well may be one of the strongest creatures on Remnant.
With a growl emanating from him, Hunter lunged at Azrael, yelling as he attacked the Grimm's Human form. Azrael merely chuckled, and easily dodged and blocked his attacks, "Is this all you have? I expected more" With a shout, Hunter jumped away from Azrael, pointing his spear at the Grimm, then with another yell he shot a bolt of lightning at the Grimm, that decimated the ground around, burned the trees, and set the earth below ablaze.
Acting quickly to his advantage, rushing Azrael he slashed and stabbed him again and again, until Azrael's blood stained the ground, then summoning several Lightning whips, latching them to nearby stones and wrapping them around the dazed Azrael, Hunter pulled them tight, restraining his pray. "Like your namesake, you will be chained" Hunter muttered, as he jumped in front of the caged Azrael, 3 feet of air and lightning chains, were all that separated the duo.
"I thought you would be stronger, I guess I'm really-" but as Hunter gloated, the chains holding Azrael broke at a mere flex, and the Grimm vanished, reappearing the next moment before Hunter, staring the shocked gamer in the eye. Without a word, faster than Hunter could react, Azrael brought back his right arm, and plunged it into Hunter's chest, the impact sending Hunter flying away into a tree.
Agony beyond anything he could ever imagine consumed Hunter, paralyzing him, a gaping hole in his chest proved to be the reason. Falling to his knees Hunter looked at Fenrir with utter terror that consumed him, as he saw what lay in Azrael's hand.
His bloody heart.
Acting quickly, Hunter summoned a single Senzu bean and consumed it, his body regenerating completely, his AP which had been shattered by the touch of Azrael restored, his HP that had been falling at speeds that would've froze his heart had it been in his chest, were instantly restored.
Looking at Azrael as every injury, every cut and scrape he had afflicted on the Grimm vanished, Hunter saw what he should've from the start. The overwhelming, terrifying power of the Grimm.
Name: Azrael

Azrael was stronger, far stronger than him, it was no contest.
Acting as quickly as he could, Hunter summoned his dark wings and attempted to flee. But before he could, Azrael appeared in front of him, punching him in the ribcage with such force that his ribs shattered and snapped, again his Aura broke instantly on impact.
"For someone of HIS blood, I expected more," Azrael said casually, walking over to Hunter and picking him up by the hair, looking him in the eye, before ripping off his left arm.
Hunter screamed in blood-curdling agony, as he attempted to escape from Azrael, but the Titan didn't release him. Merely plunging his hand into Hunter's Stomach, and tearing out his lower spine, throwing it to the hungry hordes of Grimm around.
The screams were now accompanied by tears of pain, as Azrael reveled in the agony he could feel radiating off of Him, and again, he tore out Hunter's heart, but he wasn't done this time. Reaching up, he gouged his eyes out, and tore off the skin and flesh from half of his face, revealing the bone, before landing a sickening blow to the white substance, breaking and shattering it instantly, tearing at his brain as it was revealed. Then tossing him away to the hordes, Azrael smiled as the Grimm ripped into the screaming Hunter with a savage ferocity, reveling at the taste of flesh and fear and agony.
With the last of his strength, Hunter fought threw the pain, the agony, the torture that he felt and consumed his 2nd Senzu bean, his limbs regenerated, organs restored, face repaired, and he released an explosion of power and darkness that flung the Grimm away from him, again he tried to escape, his mind desperate as he tried to teleport away from the nightmare made flesh, but nothing happened, and the last of his hope was burned as black words appeared before him.
You cannot fast travel when enemies are nearby
His most primal instincts kicked in, and using all of his Mana, he launched his Iron spear covered with the power of Thunder Spear at Azrael, before turning and attempting to run.
Twisting his body, Azrael both dodged and grabbed the Thunder Spear, before breaking it with one hand, snapping it clean in half.
"I'm impressed you still live. But that won't save you"
Tossing the two halves of the Iron spear, Azrael impaled Hunter's legs, the iron pinning him to the ground in front of him through his knees.
A gasp of pain and fear left Hunter's lips, as he tore the broken spear out of him, tossing them to the side, his Darkness healing him, glancing back as Azrael walked toward him, he stumbled across the ground, tripping and fumbling. Getting to his feet, he tried to escape once more, but before he could, the arm of Azrael, holding his still beating heart, erupted from his chest.
Hunter's eyes widened agony consuming him instantly once again, as Azrael crushed his heart before his eyes.
"As a reward for surviving, I'll make sure my brethren don't damage your corpse too much."
And as Azrael ripped his arm from Hunter's chest, everything turned black.
Is that a Hint of Plot I see?!
YES, IT IS!
There we go!
The first proper cliffhanger in this book!
Originally, Azrael was actually Fenrir. But after several reviews telling me that I was copying the story that inspired this, I finally realized.
I was, a fricking was.
So I changed it, turned Fenrir into Azrael, and I'm now going to take a hard fricking look at what I'm doing with this story.
Because I feel absolutly shit for copying someone else, and copying a story that I love.
Till Next Time!
