I wake up early and head into the kitchen an prepare coffee to prepare the others for the long day ahead of them.
'what's up for today after all I don't have any quest… well I could make my own home, right next to there's even…' I think you myself.
'what do you think Starlow?' I ask her.
[Go for it, it would be nice to not bum off of these guy's] She replies.

Well that settled it I was going to make myself a home but what kind? Of course, a Burrow! It would be safe AND hidden from Grimm and Atlas should they try to hunt me down and experiment on me.
As I was thinking on how to make my little hole in the ground I was interrupted by a cough.
"Morinin John whatcha up to?" Yang asked.
"Not much just thinking about making a home here if it's ok with you guy's I would like you help in making it." I reply.,
"I'm sure dad won't mind." She said.
"Great… but we need supplies. I know what I'm making but I could use a pickaxe to do it." I say a little dejected at my lack of equipment.
"Why do you want a pickaxe?" She asks.
"Well when I planned my move I heard about what atlas would do to any… unknowns." I say ominously. "That's Why I'm making a burrow a special one at that because I think I figured out how to get another pipe without setting it in stone and let you guys use it!" I say excitedly.
"Oh…" She seemed a little worried. "It makes sense after all they tried that with the vampire and failed but I don't know about you."
"Ok, ok, ok what is this about a vampire?" I ask, "Because you have mentioned him twice now and I still have no clue as to what you're talking about."
"Oh! Well you see apparently there was a kid about our age who turned out to be a vampire. When atlas found out they began to hunt him down, Heck one even tried to blow up his house when he had family in there!" She cried in exasperation.
"Ouch! But he failed but anyway why don't we head out into town and get those supplies I could even get some new clothes while were out!" I say not realizing I just said this to a girl.
"Great let's go ill just write a note for dad letting him know where we are." She said… manically.
And we left me very unaware of the hell I just brought on myself.

3rd P.O.V
Somewhere in the many Forrest of Vale
"Grumble grumble the mustard of victory was not achieved rather the sour left-out mayonnaise is what I had been dealt…" A disgruntled robed figure griped.
"if only that over-sized can of the turtle soup along with red and green... Red and Green… RED AND GREEN!"
"I. "
"HAVE."
"FURY!"
"If I see them again I will make sure THAT THEY WILL TASTE THE SOUR MAYO OF DEFEAT WHILE I…" He was cut off by some bushes rustling.
"What are you yelling about… Brat." Tha-That voice it was familiar… it was the voice of his old master, the very same that was bested by the meddlesome red and green.
Out from the very same set of bushes came an elderly woman a woman who was in purple and yellow robe, had pink fuzzy slippers on her feet and too purple and yellow oval shaped… thing on her head.
But the biggest thing about her was that she was Green.
"MISTRESS CACKLETTA!" The robed figure exclaimed with joy.
"Shut up Fawful… I have had enough yelling for today." Cackletta groaned
"Yes Mistress!" Fawful saluted.
"Now Fawful I have been doing some research and it seems we are in another world entirely. Come I will bring you up to speed… and the we shall begin to make plans understand?" Cackletta asked.
"Yes." He replied
"Good."
The two set off to find shelter and begin planning their attempt to conquer remnant.

Item:
6 shovels
We were just ringing up the tools and by bean bean were they expensive! I mean I have money for days but still it was so much money!
At least I got a new weapon...
Might I add that I never thought ahead enough about how we would get it all back? Well turns out Yang just strapped it all to her back, it was honestly terrifying I mean she was armed to the nines with shovels who would want to mess with someone like that?
And I forgot about the last thing we had on the docket for that day, the one thing I realized I had brought upon myself.
A girl who liked clothes shopping…
"What about this?" She asked as she held out a tattered set of jeans
"No, I don't want anything that screams hobo or party boy so let's go with something more how do you put it… Ah! Yes, business casual." I reply.
"Boo." She whines. "Just get something that scream fun you know? It's better than anything formal you know plus it will be easier to replace."
"oh don't get me wrong I will get some work clothes it's just I don't want to walk around in leans and a tee all day I mean its comfy if you replace the jeans with shorts but that's for when you're at home not out on the town." I simply state as if it was fact.
Now I have never been a fan of any form of formal wear as I said before I love just a simple tee and a set of shorts, but this was a new life in a new world I was going to look both badass AND dapper and no one was going to stop me.
"You know, you could tell me more about this vampire boy while we are shopping you know..." I say eager to learn how far into AU territory I was in here.
"well he does have both a girlfriend and sister and is planning to open a shop here in town soon enough in fact the odd thing is that his girlfriend has pink AND white hair." She said.
'Ooooohhh no is she talking about Neo? If so then this is bad vampire Neo is the last thing I need to worry about, and a shop you say?' I think aloud.
"What kind of shop?" I ask.
"A magic shop I mean if I was a vampire that is the kind of shop id make." She replied.
'Are you thinking what I'm thinking Starlow?' I ask her.
[ If your thinking about selling our goods to him then yes, I am, I mean who else would buy a crystal that can summon a nevermore?] She says greedily.

We walked out of the store and I felt like a new man.
I now sported a black dress vest with a tie over my tunic along with black dress pants and a gold pocket watch in the vest's breast pocket along my new oxford shoes on my feet I felt great and hey it boosted my Stache by a ton so that was a plus.
We went to the docks and hopped on a fairy heading home.
While on the quaint little boat I pulled out all my coffee except the chuckachino and drank them.

The boat rid was taking forever so I decided to finally take a look at the minion menu.
Tutorial: minion menu
The minion menu allows you to level up and assign minions to squads to do various things such as:
Collect resources.
Attack hostile bases.
Build structures.
And much much more.

I sent out the captains on a gathering mission and went on my merry way.
(BMG end)
Rose/Xiao long residence.
We finally get home and to our surprise tai and ruby are out in the front yard training both in a white tee shirt and jeans it seemed as though they had just finished a spar Starlow was there too laying on the family's pet dog zewi.
"Good job Ruby!" Tai praised. "But you need to learn to not rely on crescent rose so much."
"Dad!" Ruby wined. "Don't make me spar with Yang!"
"Well… Oh hey nice to see you two are back." Tai greeted us. "Hey john would you like to join us? I need to teach ruby unarmed combat and you might need the lessons too after all your living on remnant now you will definitely need to be prepared for the chance of a Grimm attack."
"Sure, why not?" I answer.
I toss my pick to the side and step into their makeshift arena and we both get into a boxing stance.
"Ok? Ready…" Tai calls out
I knew we would both suck at hand to hand but here's the thing…
"Fight!" He exclaims.
He never said anything about ONLY hand to hand.
(Play Tough Guy Alert! - Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey)
As Ruby attempts to sucker punch me I simply jump and land on her head doing the same old same old backflip.
"Good john!" tai tells me. "But don't just stay crouched and springboard instead actually kick off your foe!" He advises.
Skill has evolved!
Jump has become power jump
Power jump: (MAX)
Even though you jump was good now it rivals that of Mario himself!
Does the same as before although now if you land the jumps you do double damage along with the chance to land a second jump for up to 4x damage.
… You mean I wasn't even jumping right?
I didn't have time to complain as Ruby just tossed me overhead as my now found myself on my back with her straddling my waist trying to break my guard and I will admit I was about to give up until I had a thought.
'why don't actually use my hands? I mean it's a game and a Mario based system at that but I'm an actual living being too.'
I then push back and knock Ruby off me putting her I a small daze and I start to wind up a punch almost as if I was using a hammer, but it was not some overhead swing but actual strait up haymaker as I let the swing fly it not only makes impact but launches her and embeds her in a tree.
'Wow.'
You have learned a new skill!
Koopa kings swing: (MAX)
You may not know any martial arts, but you sure hit hard
This attack is the same as the hammer but has knockback at the exchange of a longer wind up time.
'Well I'm no bowser but it's still nice.'
(BMG end)
"… I think we should take a break. Uhm nice swing john." Tai says a little surprised a twerp like me could pack such a punch.
"WHAT!? YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU COULD PUNCH LIKE THAT!" Yang exclaimed as if she just found out she was getting a prize for her hair.
"We have to spar sometime!"
"How about no?" I say scared for my life "Besides we have a home to build!"
"Hey john? Why do we have six shovels if there are only 4 of us?" Tai asked.
"Make that 5." An unknow voice said.
I turn around and see a little girl about ruby's age who looks a lot like the w of team RWBY but if she was raised by Tai instead of her ass of a father.

"Hello and you are?" I ask.

"He."
"Is."
"So."
"CUTE!" She squeals.
I find myself slowly being crushed by an adorable mini-Weiss I manage to get a few words out before I start to go numb.
"Pweas rewease me." I can barely choke out.
"Oh! Sorry!" She apologized before she unceremoniously let go of me.
"OK. Now who are you?" I ask once more.
"the name's Tulip mister." She says so adorably I can't even think straight. "And don't wear it out!"
"Well I'm John Tulip nice to meet you." I say.
"OK John catch." Tai said as he tossed me a gun after apparently coming out of the house.
i mean wasn't he just next to us on the porch?
Lever action rifle
A hammer and jump are nice but sometimes you just need to use a gun.
Does equal to syn damage and double on headshot triple if you hit them between the eyes.

"Why are you giving me this?" I ask him.
"Well were making your home, right? Then your going to need some way to defend yourself." He explains. "Anyway, you never explained why you got six shovels."
"Well you see about that…" I try to deflect as we head out to where the minions where camped out at.
? P.O.V
In the red-light district of vale
I had just left pillow island or whatever they called it after giving up on the heist I had planned there only to be sucked up by some vortex and spat out in the middle of nowhere, yet I was luck and found a good old town to rob! It was time for me the famous shadow thief to strike again.
That was until I met a nice stand up guy named Roman Torchwick.
He was as I said a stand-up guy, down on his luck and couldn't make a dime so I showed him the way of the thief and made him my rookie.
With him at my side we tore up this town, Vale yeah Vale in a largest thieving spree that we got ourselves on the news, thanks to that we gotta hide from the fuzz for now but at least we got some good upgrades before we had to go into hiding heck the kid has a new cane-gun thing that's nice for him looks dapper too I have to give him credit anyhow I should wrap up its getting late.
This is Popple the shadow thief signing out.
I close my journal and put it back in my bag.
"Rookie? You ready?" I ask him
"Yeah let's book it." He replies.
And so, we make a run for it heading for the docks and boarded the first boat for Mistrial.
We wouldn't be back for a while that was certain.
'so long vale till we rob ya again!'
John's P.O.V
Deep in the forest of Patch
A week later.
*BANG. *
I was training with my new rifle picking off a few creeps and the occasional nevermore thinking back on what happened just a week ago and how awkward it was…
A week ago.
We had just reached the minions camp and I had introduced them to the captains.
To say that the family was surprised was an understatement.
".. What are we looking at?" Yang asked.
"I well I told you they where an odd bunch!" I restated.
"I didn't think you meant a freaking living ghost and a head with feet!" She retorted.
"Well I'm sorry for thinking you'd be open minded!" I barked back.
This was not going as planned.
"look I'm not asking you to accept them right away, but they are from my world and they need a home until they can get back can you at least work with them? Until they have a home?" I asked.
"Fine!" She gives. "But I think all of us need some time to process this…"
And after that small spat from yang we got to work but it was silent work I knew they weren't racist they were just confused but it hurt a little.
We kept working throughout the day and it was uneventful at least until we needed to put in the first set of support beams.
Just to save myself some humiliation I just say it myself: I couldn't lift the wood.
I mean even both Ruby and C.G could lift the logs and HE doesn't even have arms!
Needless to say, it was embarrassing.
So, we decided I would-be put-on guard duty while everyone else did the work on the house.
Back to the present.
"With all this stuff going on I forgot to even buy a scroll how funny." I muse to myself.
Seeing as the perimeter was safe I decide to look at my stats.

It was nice I mean I didn't get to much loot as I was just on defense and couldn't leave my post but at least I got the exp.
As I was admiring my newly gained levels Ruby came up from behind and scared me half to death.
"John! It done! Hurry we want you to be there, so we can connect the pipe system and seal up the surface entrance!" She said as happy as ever.
"Sure, let's go." I say as finally calm down.
I get in the burrow and they seal me in.

You have unlocked a new skill for hitting a stat milestone!
Hammer flip:
This for the inner Kirby fan you can now do a hammer uppercut that can be charged without a damage penalty like a standard hammer attack and will set on fire after a set period of time adding even more damage on top of the standard damage but needs to charge even longer than the standard hammer attack.
Does 1.5 Pow uncharged 2x Pow at half charge 3x Pow at thee fourths charge and 4x Pow plus fire damage equal to your Syn over 5 seconds at full charge
…
…
…
… I have no idea what to say after all the hammer flip was one of the most op hammer moves in Kirby. Now only if I could figure out if it also had the flame itself do damage then it would be at true full power and that also gave me some incentive to actually boost my syn but for now nope I'm still going to tank up.
As I close the pamphlet I see that my new burrow now had furniture in it and before you say that it was just a dirt hole well let's just say you would be sorely mistaken as it was much more akin to a vault in fallout or the camp of Fortuna in Warframe and I never took a tour inside so I was exploring it and it was nice.
The newly sealed entrance was just a small empty room that spilled out into a Livingroom of sorts that had a curved flat screen on the left wall with a entertainment set under it that had a Xb.O.X (Xbox One X) and a router on it. In front of it there was a coffee table that had a dock for a switch with said switch resting in it and a nice red sofa behind the table. The room also spilled out into a kitchen with a small bar or rather soda shop as it did not have any whisky or wine or even beer but of course instead soda some labels I knew such as coke-cola, sprite, Dr Pibb and Pepper. But there were also other more fictional brands such as sunset sarsaparilla, chuckacola, and other possibly remnant-based brands such as powdered dust, Schnee sarsaparilla and even… Coco kola… Really?
I left the main room to find out that what was apparently my room was between the kitchen and living room to the left of the entrance right next to the tv.
Inside my room I found several things, to my right was a complete copy of the tv and entertainment set but with the dock on the top as well.
On the walls where shelves upon shelves of Nintendo merch and Bungie merch as well.
But my bed on the right side of the room…
Well it was a queen size with a nice dark green blanket on it but that was not why I was looking at it not rather itt was what was On it that I looked at..
On the bed was a body pillow of queen bean with a note attached to it
Hope you like it he he… - C.G
I proceed to burn the pillow with my hammer flip.
When it finished burning I found an odd piece of paper in it that paper was well…

White-listing:
As you adventure you will find friends along the way and sometimes you need to get somewhere fast now you can bring your team with you!
Just open up the White-list menu and everyone you have met will be on this menu and you can white/black list to you hearts content.
I then white-list the captains and the family.
When I emerge from the crash site pipe I find myself in a small log cabin that is more of a shed than a cabin and as I Walk out the gang just runs up and hugs me.
"Ok Ok! Calm down you guys. By the way I got the system working properly now." I tell them.
And with that they all rush in the house and leave me all alone in the autumn wind.
It's not like I was going to stay anyways after all I have a door to find.
Before I leave though I head back to the burrow and ask Tai if I could meet with Ozpin.
"Why do you need to talk with him?" He asks.
"I'm leaving for a while and I have some… Business with him." I state ominously. "Now I have no ill will towards him but I have a message to deliver to him in person."
"I don't know, I mean I do see you as family, but we also just met I don't think it would be a good idea." He says.
"Tai I need to talk to him it important." I beg.
"Sigh Fine! But if you get in trouble don't expect to bail you out." He states.
"Fine by me." I reply.
And with that I say my goodbyes and head for vale as Tai said he would put the call in as I made my way there.
Only if I knew what I had just done…
Hey guys I hope you loved the chapter and before I go I want to ask you guys something.
If any of you guys are a beta or know a beta who would want to well... beta my story send them my way as it would help me greatly get the chapters out somewhat faster in the future as I do know I was a bit slow this time.
Anyhow S.O.M out.
