Shota Aizawa and the other UA Staff were all gathered in the conference room. Aizawa had a frown upon his face. He was in quite a bad mood and he knew that none of the other Staff were in a particularly good mood either. He had failed to protect one of his students again. His students had wanted to go out for the weekend to celebrate getting their provisional hero licenses. He knew his students needed to fun times after all that had happened recently. So, he talked to Principal Nezu about an outing for Class 1-A. Nezu had agreed with him for the outing and authorized it if he went, and another Pro went with the Class. He had convinced Present Mic to join him. Aizawa was sure that him and Yamada could handle any villain that would dare make move at his class. Though he was sorely wrong about that.
The class had decided they wanted to go to the beach. Midoryia had told the class about good beach they could go to that he knew was quite good. So Aizawa and Yamada took the class out to the beach just for the day. It was quite a nice day sun was shining and temperature was perfect. He had the students bring wear their Hero costumes on the way just in case of something happened and with the exception of Todoroki and Bakugo. Afterall those two did not pass the licensing exam. Also, another reason why Aizawa had them in their Hero gear might as well get a patrol lesson in and get the public to get used to seeing them more. Though himself and Yamada were there to deal with any emergencies first and possible villain attacks. They never made it to the beach though. They had encountered a Villain calling himself Red. Red had shoulder length crimson hair and wore a matching crimson suit with matching gloves and boots. Red also donned a bone white mask that covered the upper part of his face. He had appeared on a roof top on building as they were heading to the beach. Red had said upon appearing in jovial tone "Ah just the Heroes I was looking for. I need to borrow one of you for test. I hope you don't mind." That had immediately set himself, Present Mic and the Class on high alert. Before anyone could react Red had tossed several what seemed to look like yellow crystals at them which exploded in lightning and gave them all an extremely awful shock except for Kaminari that subdued everyone around including Aizawa and Present Mic. Red had seemingly teleported down to the class while everyone was recovering kicked away Kaminari before he could react. Then opened what seemed to be a doorway leading to a green forest. Aizawa and everyone who was still conscious which were only a few could only watch helplessly as Red grabbed Tokoyami and tossed him through the doorway. Which promptly vanished and Red decided to give them some parting words. "I hope I didn't give you all to bad of a shock that any of you die. Then again dust crystals that size can be quite volatile when dropped like that. Don't worry about your Classmate he should be fine if he wakes up time. Also, won't be able to find him anywhere on Planet earth. He's now on a planet abandoned by the gods known as Remnant. Though I must be off people need me don't worry though I shall be back to take another." After Red said that he vanished though another doorway.
Here was Aizawa and the UA Staff in the Conference room only a few hours later. "I can't believe I lost another student under my care!" He said quite frustrated that he was completely helpless against a Villain. He was a Pro Hero dammit! Though he had tried to use his quirk on Red and it didn't stop Red from making those doorways. Which really confused him why didn't work. "I know how you feel Aizawa those "dust" crystals whatever you said Red had called them knocked me right out." Present Mic said in a depressed tone. "Someone is going tohave to have chat with young Kaminari. It was only due to his quirk that he wasn't incapacitated with the rest of the class. Who knows how he must be feeling knowing that he was the only one who could stop that Villain but was unable to stop him." All Might said with a grim look on his face. Who wished he was there but also knew that since he no longer had one for all he knew he wouldn't have been able to help. "This Villain Red is quite the concerning one. To not only show off quite a powerful quirk but also have a completely unknown substance capable of such devastation. Those "dust" crystals that Red used on class 1-A and you two" Nezu said gesturing to Aizawa and Present Mic "Seem to have been crystalized electricity which who knows how that was even made and the police could only gather dust remains of them. Also, Aizawa what you said that Red said before he disappeared also has me concerned. Stating that Fumikage Tokoyami in no longer on earth but another planet entirely. Part of me wants to say its complete nonsense but another part of me can't help believing that it's possibly true. It seems that beside searching all over for Red which we already are doing. We just have to wait for him to appear again and try to take another student." Nezu said looking quite grim.
Aizawa had hoped that after all the league of Villain attacks things would calm down for a while. It seemed like they were then this happened. They had already informed Fumikage Parents of what had happened, and they were not pleased as expected. The already fragile trust UA had was already crumbling. All they could do now was protect their students with all they have and more and hope they can find Tokoyami soon.
Tokoyami didn't have to wait terribly long for Ozpin to explain his "story" to Team Rwby. The four girls exited Ozpin's office. Yang was the first one to speak. "Hey there Mister Transfer Student why didn't you tell us? Why you have to come up with that fib about you waking up in the forest." Tokoyami was about to formulate a response when Wiess interjected. "Yang you heard what Ozpin said. He was using Tokoyami coming here as way to test us. To see if we could "search and rescue a lost person" in a timely manner. Glad to know he was impressed with us and Tokoyami your acting skills were superb you really had me convinced that you had just woken up in that forest lost and confused." Tokoyami was quite impressed with Ozpin's skill with words to convince Team Rwby that he was just there as a covenant test for them.
"Thank you. You did act quite swiftly." Tokoyami said continue with Ozpin's cover story. He also noticed that Blake was staring at him again. That reminded him he had forgotten to ask what a Faunus was. He was starting to wonder why Blake kept staring at him and hadn't said anything yet. "So! Shall we give you your tour of Beacon?" Ruby said with a bit of enthusiasm. "Yes, that would be nice." He responded.
The Tour of Beacon was really impressive to Tokoyami. The school was seemingly on par and in some cases bigger than UA in a lot of regards. Having a whole massive forest was quite impressive. It reminded him of Ground Gamma at UA. Though the Emerald Forest was full of the creature of grim. Which judging off the way the creatures were talked about and the fact Huntsmen main goal is to fight them. They were quite a big deal but also made for good training.
One of the spots the Tokoyami took great interest in was the Library which insanely massive. He liked books anyway, but he also used the little bit of time he was in there to take a quick look at things to get a better understanding of things. He had taken a moment to break away from his tour guides to find a book that described what a Faunus was. From what he had quickly skimmed from a book is basically that Faunus where like humans except they had a singular animal trait, and all had night vision. That did help explain the stares he was getting. His entire head was that of a bird's which was already an oddity in his own world. He was an entirely different oddity in this one. Technically speaking he was just an ordinary human, but his quirk caused his bird head mutation. From what he had quickly read was that Faunus typically had animal ears on their heads or tails. Nothing to level like he is. Though he hadn't spotted any Faunus in school so far though. It seemed in Beacon Faunus were quite the minority. "Ruby! I found him he's over by the Faunus History books" Yang shouted as she popped around the corner of a bookshelf. "So, Bird boy what are you checking out over here?" Yang asked curiously. "I was checking to see if there had be any other Faunus with abnormalities like myself recorded." He replied putting the book he had back on the shelf. "Yang! This is a library you can't just shout in here." Wiess scolded Yang in whisper as she, Ruby and Blake showed up. "Wiess this isn't the first time I have shouted in here and won't be the last." Yang stuck out her tongue at Wiess who turned around with an offended scoff. "Anyway, Tokoyami here was just checking to see if Beacon had any books that recorded any Faunus like him. Blake you are a book nerd and probably read half of these books in here anything recorded a Faunus as unique as Tokoyami here?" Blake shook her head. "No, I haven't read or even heard of Faunus as unique as yourself. Faunus have only even been recorded as having one animal trait. I know that most bird Faunus either just have beak or wings of sorts."
"You here that Tokoyami you are uber special not like you didn't know but if our local book nerd hasn't found anything like you. You truly are unique!" Yang said with a cheer. Who got shushed by Wiess.
The tour continued Tokoyami got to see the lecture Halls, The Dorms, and the Dinning Hall. Which scale really impressed him like most things did. The lecture Halls were apparently normal classrooms. Way bigger than 1-A that's for sure. The Dorm building was way bigger than the dorms that UA had just built but the Dorms at Beacon also housed four years of students compared to UA where each year had its own dorm. The Dinning Hall was also again much bigger that UA's lunchroom but that seemed to be the norm for Beacon. Though UA had more training areas than Beacon did it seemed. Beacon had the Emerald Forest and a Combat Arena of sparring. Though he realized if he didn't have an Aura questions would be raised about him. From what Ruby said is they used Aura Gauges to spar and once someone got nocked into the red the match was over. Yang seemed to want to have go around with him in the Arena. Luckily Wiess had stepped in stating she wait for Class Ozpin had requested him back once the tour was over.
It had taken a few hours to tour all of Beacon. It was nearing about lunch time by the Time they took him back to Ozpin's Office. They said they would stick around for him so he could have lunch with them. Tokoyami was surprised with how nice Team Rwby as whole was. Though the way each of them acted like one of his classmates. Which made him a bit depressed though he was certain none of them noticed. Having a bird's head did help him have a good poker face. Though he felt like Blake might have been able to read what he was feeling.
"Welcome back Mr. Tokoyami, This is my assistant Glynda Goodwitch she will be the one attempting to active your Aura if you possess one." Ozpin stated when Tokoyami entered Ozpin's Office. Tokoyami looked at Goodwitch. She looked like quite the strict person. He was just basing that off her outfit which was quite the business attire with the black high waisted pencil shirt and white shirt. The glasses and blond hair in a bun. "Nice to Mr. Tokoyami. Ozpin has informed me of your situation. Which he should have woken me up and consulted me first." Goodwitch said as she sent a glare at Ozpin. Who decided that his mug was quite an interesting thing to look at. "But he is the Headmaster so if he says somethings happening it's happening." Tokoyami just nodded in response not wanting to say anything. "As for unlocking you Aura if you have one it's quite simple. I can do it for you just stand still and relax." Goodwitch said as she approached Tokoyami. She then placed a hand on his chest and said "For it is in passing that we achieve immortality. Through this become a paragon of virtue and glory to rise above all, infinite in distance and unbound by death. I release your soul and by my shoulder protect thee." Tokoyami noticed as she spoke those words. Goodwitch glowed a pale white as she spoke. She removed her hand from his chest. He noticed she looked a bit more tired that she just was. "Well it seems someone from another world can have Aura." Goodwitch said look at Tokoyami. Which he noticed that he had a faint purple glow surrounded him for just a moment before fading away.
"Now I am curious if you will develop a Semblance. I would assume so since he is capable of generating an Aura. Granted you won't know your Semblance till it activates and what causes it to active that in anyone's guess really." Ozpin stated as he took sip from his mug. "For now, though we are just going to stick with that creature that is your Quirk is your Semblance. I got a dorm room set up for you at took the liberty of putting some books about Remnant so you can get filled in on history and actually pass as someone who lives here." Ozpin said holding something out for Tokoyami to grab. He grabbed the thing Ozpin was holding and it was set of white grips with a yellow button. He pressed it and watch it turn into a phone. "This is a scroll it will allow you get access to your dorm and also act communication device." Tokoyami looked at it and familiarized himself with this scroll. It wasn't different than his own phone. Well it was quite different it a lot of ways, but it also shares quite a few similarities. "That is all I need from you for now Tokoyami. I believe that Team Rwby wishes to have lunch with you. I will message you on your school if I need to talk to you" Once Ozpin said that Tokoyami left the Office and headed towards the dinning hall with Team Rwby.
Ozpin watched Tokoyami leave his Office for the second time that day. He had a feeling that Glynda had more on her mind. That she wanted to say to him. Without taking a glance in Glynda's direction he asked "Yes Glynda? You have something on your mind?" Knowing full well Glynda most definitely had something on her mind to say to him. "As a matter of fact, I do. I actually have a few things to say. First off why did you accept a total stranger into our school? You know Salem's Pawns are everywhere and sooner or later they will infiltrate Beacon!" Glynda started to rant. "Second off wake me up when alarms go off, I am assistant for reason to make sure you don't make rash decisions and so you always have second more rational opinion on things!" Ozpin just stood there waiting for Glynda to finish her rant. "Third why did you send a first-year team about to start their second semester to go investigate an anomaly! Ozpin looked at Glynda who stared at him expecting some damn good answers. "You raise some valid points hopefully theses answers will satisfy you. First off, I have determined Fumikage Tokoyami is not from this world. As I told you earlier but here let me show you my proof. "Ozpin then pulled up a two of images. The first being an Image of Tokoyami talking to a bird like shadow creature coming from himself. "See that creature is his quirk that he calls Dark Shadow. I know you know that there has never been a Semblance like that ever. I can tell you that there never has, and I have been around quite a long time as you know. This second image I managed I first met Tokoyami, but this is what set off the alarm this morning. It was image of doorway that looked into an unrecognizable city on one side laid Tokoyami unconscious in the Emerald forest. On the side that was in the city there was man wearing crimson suit donning a Grim mask. Also, there seemed to be several people in front of the man in the crimson suit. Ozpin didn't recognize any of them, but he was sure Tokoyami did. Though the man in the Red suit he knew he worked with the White Fang he had seen him before though from what Ozpin has gather, he did not work for Salem. Though Ozpin didn't have the faintest idea how he made those doorways that was still a mystery to him. Also, those doorways messed with Camera feeds a lot. It took him a great deal of messing around with the Cameras to get this still.
"You see Glynda proof that Tokoyami came from another world. As you know we have had tabs on that man in the Red suit for a while now but know almost nothing about him besides that he works with the White Fang. We now know that he can open doorways into another world somehow. I am not going to rule out magic as possibility, but I highly doubt it. It was magic an entirely different alarm would have gone off this morning." Glynda glared at Ozpin for second. "Ok you have me convinced that that boy isn't a spy. Though you better send Qrow out to hunt down that man in red if you want to have any hope of sending Tokoyami back home." Ozpin smiled at Glynda "That was the first thing I did once I got that image though Qrow really has a full plate now and as for your other two points. You stay up to late and I felt like you needed your sleep the second semester is about to start, and I felt like Team Rwby could handle that mission and I wasn't wrong." Glynda starred at Ozpin for a solid ten seconds. "It shouldn't matter if I am staying up to late still wake me up from now on though I do appreciate your concern for my sleep, and I am just going to say you favor Team Rwby to much but you know that. Let me message me on my scroll if you need me, I need to finish up writing some lesion plans also you don't need to ask yes I will take notes on that Dark Shadow thing." Glynda said as she walked out of the Office.
Ozpin went and looked out the window of his Office while taking another sip from his mug. He now had another piece on the board that Salem knew nothing about. Though it did concern him that there was a wild card in play. He just hoped he could snatch the wild card up before Salem noticed it.
Tokoyami and Team Rwby had made it to the dining room. Lunch was in full swing the room was packed full of people. He did manage to spot few other Faunus the most stand out person had bunny ears. Team Rwby got themselves some food. He got himself a simple sandwich and two apples. He couldn't resist the apples they were his favorite. He sat with Team Rwby at a table. Ruby explained that they normally eat with another team called Team JNPR, but she said they were probably out in Vale as it was the last day to do so before the second semester started. So, he would get to meet them tomorrow. "So Tokoyami you wanna spar later today?" Tokoyami thought about it would be good way practice using Aura. Though he would need to read up about Aura though, so he knew how to actually use it. "Sure, though I need to visit my dorm first and ensure everything is in order there." He said so he would have reason to go to his dorm and read up really quick. "That's fine with me as long as you don't chicken out on me." Yang said with a grin. It didn't take him long to finish his lunch and he left for his dorm saying he would meet team Rwby at the combat arena. Luckily, he had a pretty good grasp of the layout of beacon that and the scroll Ozpin gave him had a map of beacon. It took him no time at all to find his dorm room. It was quite large with single bed in it. In the corner there was a desk that had several books on it. He also noticed another door to his left. He went and opened it to reveal a bathroom. Tokoyami closed it and went over to the desk. The books were of various subjects. Aura, History of Remnant, History of Faunus, and book all about the Creatures of Grim. He also took note that there were a few empty books which he assumed were for him to take notes in. He grabbed the book about Aura and took a few minutes to skim though it. From what he gathered Aura was used a shield that would protect the user from harm. It could also be used to heal wounds, used in offensive moves and also heighten senses. Tokoyami was amazed that something so useful existed granted he also read that if all of someone's Aura was depleted it could result in them becoming incapacitated. So, he would have to concentrated maintain an Aura barrier until it became second nature to him. The book said that it was possible.
Tokoyami took a few more minutes to skim through his books a bit. "You have been quiet during this entire ordeal Dark Shadow I am sure you have something to say." "I have just been taking in this information just the same as you. It's given me and I am sure you a lot to think about. Though we sure got lucky with Ozpin letting us stay here." Tokoyami was relieved to hear Dark Shadow speaking to him. He had been worried with his Quirk's silence the he had vanished. It sounded absurd to think of, but he was stuck in a totally new world, so anything was possible. "Don't worry Tokoyami I am not going anywhere. We are stuck in this mess together like always." The perks of having a sentient Quirk he was never alone and had typically a second opinion on things. "Well Dark Shadow we are about to fight, and I shall be using this Aura thing for the first time. Let's hope you don't freak those girls to bad." Tokoyami said as he put down, he was looking at. Dark Shadow popped out from underneath his cloak to give he a thumbs up then went back inside him. He knew that there were no cases of Semblance ever being sentient being like Dark Shadow. Though he read that one family the Schnee Family had Semblance that could summon things that they could control. He also looked up the Schnee Family a bit on his scroll. They were quite famous for the Dust the harvested. He then left his room to head for the combat arena.
"Ah, there you are I was starting to think you got cold feet and bailed on the fight." Yang said a she saw Tokoyami enter the Combat Arena. "I said I would spar with you. So here I am" Tokoyami said as he looked at Yang. He then looked up in the seats above the Arena and saw the Ruby, Wiess and Blake sitting there. "This is quite the impressive place to spar though." Tokoyami said taking note of how large the Arena seemed to be. "It's the best place to spar it got a place to display our Aura's. Also, our combat classes are held here." Yang said getting into a fighting stance it seemed that she brawler from the way she held herself. Tokoyami also noticed that Yang's bracelets had turned into full gauntlets on her arms. Transforming Weapons just like that Scythe Ruby had but he had no idea what sort of weapon Yang used. Guess that was a good reason Aura existed so they can still fight using weapons it seemed. He focused on concentrating so that he is Aura could take any blows Yang was going to deliver. Tokoyami really hoped Aura worked they way it was described. It also didn't help that Tokoyami knew nothing about Yang's fighting style. "Well Bird boy I am ready when you are." Tokoyami nodded. He looked up at where the Aura were displayed. Both him and Yang were completely full the bar reminded him a health bar in a video game. Tokoyami knew he had the element of surprise he knew Yang didn't know how he fought either nor did she know about his Quirk. He assumed that she was close range fighter just judging from her gauntlets though he was sure they did something else than just act as gauntlets. 'Dark Shadow for now I am going to keep my distance from her. Once she gets close, I want you to attack. Then we shall go from there once we determine more of her fighting style.' 'You got it; I am ready.' "Ok, let's do this." Tokoyami said to Yang.
*** Well that is a wrap for now. I hope I am doing decent so far. I also introduced the one responsible for Tokoyami ending up on Remnant. I will be sure to reveal more about him later. I will also be introing Team JNPR next chapter too. I also have decided on the average size I want to gun for my chapters to be. From this point they will be about 5k though if I get on roll with writing they may go bigger. As you read, I gave Tokoyami an Aura I haven't decided on what his Semblance will be just yet. Though Shadowlord posed an interesting idea that I didn't think of. If it's possible for Dark Shadow to have an Aura. That may be something I look at doing but I am not really sure at the moment so we shall see. Also thank you all for leaving Reviews, favoriting, and following. Really makes me excited to write knowing people like what I am writing. I plan on keeping this story going on for quite a while. It gives me something to do while I watch Cameras at work. You guys might have already picked up on this, but the story takes place and the end of Season 3 of My Hero Acidemia and the start of Season 2 of RWBY. Sadly, I haven't read the Manga of My Hero just yet it's on my to do list. I can say for certain another Student or even a Pro Hero will end up in Remnant before the story gets to the end of Season 2 of Rwby. Though a Villain may or may not also show up. All depend on what I want to do with Red. Well That's it for now. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter keep any eye out for the next one
