A/N: Well, I decide to update again, and humor you all. I do hope you guys will keep supporting with the story.
By the way, to the guy that gave tips about Past Tense Verbs, thank you very much.
Some might not like this decision but then again, this is my story (I apologize if it sounds harsh), I will be adding 3 or 4 characters from Gintama, maybe only 3 because I'm not planning to add too many of them.
-LINE BREAK-
"So, how's the kiddo doing, Oz?" Qrow asked, his face appearing on said Headmaster's Scroll.
"Which 'kiddo' you're referring to?" Ozpin asked back, his smirk visible.
"Well, the silver-haired kid of course."
"Why, I would like to say that young Gintoki is settling well here. He likes your niece, Ruby's company, it seems." Ozpin answered, no longer smirking but instead he's smiling but then it faltered. "Qrow, I am thankful you found him first."
"Yeah… Kiddo is a scary kid. You don't often see someone who is 11 to 12 years old that agile, or dangerous. Heck, he got the look of someone not hesitating to kill for shit sake."
"Yes, he is strong. He had to be strong if he was to survive, and he survived. I would like to believe, that he has the same believe as your sister before you found him." Ozpin informed, eyes narrowing.
"What did you just say..?" Qrow's eyes widened in disbelief. "But… I see, with a belief just like my sister, no wonder his fighting style is like that." His hand cupping his chin.
"Indeed. You described his fighting style as pure instinct, no one teach him how to fight but himself. Even if he is taught, he would be following a fighting style of his teacher." Ozpin reasoned.
"I don't want to think of what The Queen might do to the kiddo if she found him first before I do."
"I second to that, Qrow, I second to that."
-LINE BREAK-
On the very next day, morning finally come, the sun rose to the sky from whatever place it crawled from. On this kind of day, our young protagonist would still be sleeping.
And that is what he did, though dangerous for someone like him, sleeping on top of a branch. And you bet he did sleep on the branch of his beloved tree in the courtyard. His snore can be heard, but it is not too loud that the passersby will hear it, though they will if they sat on the seat below. Companying his snoring, a bit of a drool can be seen on his lips, dripping slowly.
When the sun's ray hit him, Gintoki stirred a bit in his sleep before opening his eyes, blinking, and then finally opening them completely. Though the moment they did, his eyes glared at the bright glowing sun.
"I really hate you, sun. I hat- No, I decided that is not strong of a word. What is another word for hate? Dis.. des…desp.. Ah, despise!" He exclaimed loudly, companied by a finger slap.
Then he went to a thinking pose, his hand on his chin. "Oh yea, Red and the others have their first class today, I just remembered. Should I go, or should I not? Coco and the others aren't here either since Oz sent them on a mission." He muttered a curse on the last sentence after saying it.
"Ah screw it, let's just go along with them on their first class." He jumped from the branch, landing on the seat, earning some yelp of surprise from the passersby. He looked at them with his dead-fish eyes, then said it tonelessly. "Ah… sorry for that."
As he walked away from the courtyard and on the way to cafeteria since he knew there is where Red and the others will be at, he then journeyed to his destination. Though, his journey is stopped after hearing a dong from the nearby clock. He eyed where the sound is from, and after finding it, observe what time is it.
"Oh my, it is already 8:57am?" He raised an eyebrow in amusement. "Well, let's just go I suppose."
Gintoki did not notice Ozpin or Glynda nearby on another seat bench.
"Aren't you going to at least scold him for sleeping on a branch?" Glynda sighed.
"He seems to like that particular spot very much. I see no problem with it."
-LINE BREAK-
Back to Gintoki, who is walking in the hallway, slow like a snail. If you asked him, he would either shrug at you, flip you the bird, but in all honesty, he is lost. He walked in random direction, earning a confused looks from the student, especially the first year considering the upper year students are used to his presence.
He did not know that he is currently where Team RWBY and Team JNPR heading to. Which is the location of Professor Port's class. Grimm Study. His ears twitched as he heard something.
And speak of the devil, or devils, there Team RWBY and Team JNPR sprinting will all their might to his location.
'When do class even start anyway?' Gintoki wondered, his face is that of a person daydreaming.
Each team entered the class, followed in order Team RWBY, then Team JNPR, and of course, in order of their Team letters. Gintoki shrugged before going in himself as he set himself to follow them.
-LINE BREAK-
Yes, you bet it is another line break. The scene changed to the inside of the class. The sight of an axe-blunderbuss weapon pans down to the boards displaying various species of Grimm - King Taijitu, Death Stalker, Beowolf, Boarbatusk, Nevermore, and Ursa - behind an elderly male teacher.
He wears a double-breasted burgundy suit with gold piping and buttons. His pants he wears tucked into olive boots, similar in appearance and construction to cavalry boots. He has gray hair and a gray mustache and appears to be slightly overweight.
This man, is Peter Port.
"Monsters! Deeeemons... Prowlers of the night! Yes, the creatures of Grimm have many names, but I merely refer to them as prey! Ha-ha!" Gintoki didn't know whether the man was joking or try to act dramatic.
As for Team RWBY, we have many reactions. Yang and Blake are sitting up, paying attention. Weiss is taking notes, and Ruby has her head propped in her hand as she took a quick nap until she is woken back up by Port's bad joke, which receives a cricket-filled silence as a result.
"Uhhhh... And you shall too, upon graduating from this prestigious academy! Now, as I was saying: Vale, as well as the other three kingdoms, are safe havens in an otherwise treacherous world! Our planet is absolutely teeming with creatures that would love nothing more than to tear you to pieces! And that's where we come in. Huntsmen! Huntresses..." He stopped his speech for a moment, winking at Yang who groaned uncomfortably, "Individuals who have sworn to protect those who cannot protect themselves! From what, you ask? Why, the very world!"
Gintoki heard a student claiming something, but if the silence was any indication, all students seem to stare at him weirdly.
"That is what you are training to become. But first: A story. A tale of a young, handsome man... Me! When I was a boy..." Professor Port began his story when he was young.
Gintoki did not listen to any of the story, since he's not a student and he's only because Red and the others are here. He observed most of the students with his dead-fish eyes. Most of them are bored to death, with some seen sleeping.
He noticed that only Weiss from Team RWBY was taking notes from whatever Port is babbling on. And judging by the expressions Ruby made, Gintoki don't think she's taking notes. He continued to ignored Port's story in favor of paying attention to Ruby and Weiss, the latter which about to explode, as Ruby was giggling about her own work, passing to the 'B' and 'Y' of the team, who just like the leader laughed.
"Ah-heh-hem!" Port coughed in order to gain their attentions. "In the end, the Beowolf was no match for my sheer tenacity, and I returned to my village with the beast in captivity and my head held high, celebrated as a hero!"
Weiss' rage meter is filling up slowly as she get more annoyed by Ruby's antics.
"The moral of this story? A true Huntsman must be honorable! A true Huntsman must be strategic, well-educated and wise!" Ruby did something with each word spoken by Port, the last which she fell asleep once again.
"So, who among you, believes themselves to be the embodiment of these traits?"
And that is the last of the Schnee's patience. "I do, sir!"
"Well, then, let's find out!" He gestured at the glowing red eyes surrounded by shadows, shaking the trap that cage it. "Step forward, and face your opponent!"
-LINE BREAK-
Now, before you ask if this is a 4th Wall Breaking, yes it is. The author forgot to describe that they were in their school uniform, but now, let's get back to the main subject!
Now Gintoki saw Weiss at her regular uniform with her Myrtenaster readied at the cage that well… contained a vile creature.
And the audiences are of course the students, which include the heiress team, Team RWBY. Speaking of which, they were giving her words of encouragement. And Gintoki do not want to know how Blake got the small flag.
'Must be nice huh… Having words of encouragement…' Gintoki mused inwardly, his eyes not paying attention to the surrounding really. He found out that the type of Grimm inside the cage was a boar kind of thing. 'Well, how disappointing…'
He saw Weiss rushed to her weapon, sliding to get it back on her hand. Then readied herself should the boar charge at her.
"Weiss! Go for its belly! There's no armor underneath-"
Weiss turned to Ruby, cutting her off. "Stop telling me what to do!"
Gintoki raised at the rebuttal, seen the gritted teeth from Weiss and the hurtful eyes of a kicked puppy from Ruby. The boar leapt into the air and rolled into a ball, spinning rapidly in the air and landing on the ground, consistently gaining speed until it launched itself at Weiss. It came closer and closer, but Weiss activated one of her blue-white circles and blocked the roll, leaping up into the now-black snowflake symbol and turning it blue again so she can drove the blade into the Boarbatusk's stomach. It squeals and falls silent while Weiss gasps in relief.
"Bravo! Bra-vo! It appears we are indeed in the presence of a true Huntress-in-training! I'm afraid that's all the time we have for today. Be sure to cover the assigned readings, and... stay vigilant! Class dismissed!" Professor Port announced right as the bell rang.
Everyone packed their things, but Gintoki can noticed it easily. The conflict between Weiss and Ruby. Gintoki narrowed his eyes in thought. 'A bitch and a brat do not make a good combination.'
-LINE BREAK-
Weiss is still storming off, but Ruby turns a corner and manages to catch up with her. "Weiss!" Ruby called.
Weiss turned to face Ruby. "What?"
"What's wrong with you? Why are you being-?" Ruby asked, but her question is not fully voiced.
"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you? You're supposed to be a leader, and all you've been so far is a nuisance!" Weiss yelled at her leader.
Ruby looked hurt by the heiress' words, but she still asked. "What did I do?"
Weiss humored Ruby, answering the latter's question. "That's just it - you've done nothing to earn your position! Back in the forest, you acted like a child, and you've only continued to do so!"
With each growing seconds, Ruby looked more and more worried, perhaps a bit desperate. "Weiss, where is this coming from? What happened to all the talk about 'working together'? I thought you believed in acting as a team."
"Not a team led by you. I've studied and trained. And quite frankly, I deserve better." Weiss turned her back on Ruby, then continued. "Ozpin made a mistake."
As Weiss walked away, Ruby looked dejected by the words spoken by the former. Ozpin, with a hot chocolate in one and a cane on the other, stood right behind a surprised Ruby. "Hmm... Now that didn't seem to go very well."
Ruby on the verge of tears, asked Ozpin. "Is she right? Did you make a mistake?"
The Headmaster laughed slightly. "That remains to be seen."
"What do you mean?" Ruby enquired.
"I mean, it's only been one day. Ruby... I've made more mistakes than any man, woman, and child on this planet. But at this moment, I would not consider your appointment to leader to be one of them." Ozpin leaned in so he can look at Ruby more directly. "Do you?"
Ruby took his words in, determination began filling her. "Being a team leader isn't just a title you carry into battle, but a badge you wear constantly. If you're not always performing at your absolute best, then what reason do you give others to follow you?"
The young Rose looked thoughtful with the words spoken, then smiled at Ozpin.
Ozpin turned her back on her as he began to walk away. "You've been burdened with a daunting responsibility, Ruby. I advise you to take some time, to think about how you will uphold it."
Ruby, with a last look of consideration, turned and walked away. She came to the balcony where Port is walking away from Weiss and smiled a little at her partner. As if a heartfelt moment like this is to be ruined, it really is after she let out a yelp courtesy of.
"Huh, the sunset here is pretty nice." Gintoki suddenly appeared, commenting on the sunset behold to them both.
"G-Gintoki! Where did you come from?" Ruby questioned, a hand on her heart to calm its fast beating.
"From Port's class."
Ruby looked at Gintoki for a moment before asking. "Hey Gintoki, what do you consider a leader?"
"That depends really." Gintoki answered momentarily. "To me, a leader is someone that brings confidence, fearlessness to the team. He or she is who makes the decision, and also the one with the most burden. A single mistake from your decision can cost you or your team's lives."
Ruby looked a bit lost at his answer. "Do… do you think I can be a good leader?"
"Everyone can be a good leader if they learn, Red. Although, that is my opinion. But to answer your question Ruby, yes. If you can get to Beacon two years early, then surely you can be a good leader." Gintoki gave her a smile, a smile that reached his eyes.
Ruby became speechless after witnessing it, for it is the first time in the short time knowing Gintoki, she saw his eyes with some life in it. She was oblivious that she was staring at his face the whole time.
Gintoki noticed the stare aimed at him. "Is there something on my face?" He asked, pointing an index finger at his face.
Ruby shook her head rapidly. "Uh-uh, No! I'm sorry, I was just lost in thought!"
"Whatever you say, Red." Gintoki turned away from her, patting her back before walking to whatever destination in his mind, or probably his favorite branch. "See you around, Red."
Ruby stared at his silhouette, before waving at him, with a bright smile.
-LINE BREAK-
With a ding sound, the elevator is opened and out Sakata Gintoki stepping in. Where is this, you ask? Why, this is Ozpin's office.
"So, what's happening that you called me here, Oz? I was about to head to my branch." Gintoki asked, picking on his ear.
"Before I answer your question, you need to lessen your time sleeping on the branch." Gintoki shook his head in denial. "Well, at least I tried. Now, you see, young Gintoki. Recently, almost every Dust Shops have been robbed. It is an understatement when people blamed Roman Torchwick and The White Fang. You understand so far?" Gintoki nodded. "Now, Glynda heard some rumours going on about some shady Faunus going into a warehouse." Ozpin threw a paper airplane which flew right into Gintoki's hand as the latter caught it with ease. "Check that place. And if the stolen Dust is there, take it here."
"Pretty simple so far, Oz. Though I'm wondering, where is Glynda?"
"She's taking a rest for now, young Gintoki. If there is some grunts and what not, you are permitted to use force to apprehend them." Gintoki nodded his head again. 'I do hope you don't have to kill them… Gintoki.'
"Well, I'll be going now I suppose. See ya later, Oz." Gintoki waved him goodbye.
-LINE BREAK-
Before he went to the Bullhead area, he was called by someone. Someone familiar which he fought with against the Death Stalker. "Gin!" Jaune waved.
Gintoki raised an eyebrow, before shaking his head. "Hey Jaune, what're you doin' outside the dorm at this hour?"
"What? I mean, ain't this a normal time to be out or something? It's only 7:59pm." Jaune answered back.
"I suppose so. So, how you and your team doing?" Gintoki asked folding his arms on his chest.
"Well, we got along pretty well, so that's a good thing. Though, I really need some training to improve my physical prowess." Jaune muttered lowly the last part, but Gintoki still heard it nonetheless.
Gintoki pretended not to hear it, as he decided to respect Jaune's privacy. "Well, I have to go somewhere for a while. Have a good time, Jaune." He walked away, waving his hand once before going inside the Bullhead.
The Bullhead rose to the sky, before flying away to its destination aka the town of Vale. Seconds passed as Jaune watched it flew. Then a light bulb flashed in his head.
"Wait, where was he going?"
-LINE BREAK-
Somewhere in Vale, there is a warehouse. This warehouse is the particular warehouse that Ozpin spoke of. Where some shady Faunus as some people said, came in and out. And yes, it really fits for shady Faunus, as the warehouse itself is shady. Heck, it even carried some haunted mansion vibe with it!
That, and he can hear them. The sound of chattering. And definitely, the sound of crystal.
'Bingo.'
He walked straight to the entrance and knocked but it was ignored, as the sound inside is far louder than his knock. Then his second, third if you count the knocking, action will not be ignored.
He sliced the entrance in half, and yes, the sound of chattering stopped.
"Wh-Who's there!?" One of them shouted, though this sound female.
Because it is anime, there is smoke covering Gintoki after slicing the entrance, with only his silhouette visible. The Faunus inside readied their weapons at the threatening figure. However, there is a problem.
After the smoke cleared, Gintoki's form is clear and visible to everyone and just after a moment or two, laughter of male and female Faunus erupted.
"Hahahahah! A lost human child! I thought it was the cop or something! Or even better, a Huntsman!" One barked, the others erupted into louder laughter.
A female rabbit Faunus (A/N: Just a coincidence it is a rabbit. Not related to Velvet of course.) made her way to Gintoki. Grinning with her teeth visible, after calming down from laughing.
"Hey kid, we will act like this didn't happened if you will just walk back where you came from and stay silent." She said to Gintoki, who's dead-fish eyes observing every Faunus surrounding him.
14 of them. He fought much more Amantos at once before, this shouldn't be too hard.
"No thank you, this is my job you see." Gintoki replied, picking his nose. Oh by the way, did I mention that all of them are from The White Fang? No? Well now you know. Gintoki clearly saw The White Fang symbol. Red dino-kind of a head, with 3 fangs? claws?
"Well…" The Faunus trailed off… "Then we'll just kill yo-" As she was trying to surprise him with a surprise attack, her words were sliced, puns intended, off as her head flew, with blood spilling the one who committed the deed.
Everyone was silent. There was no sound, except the sound of seawater nearby the warehouse, and the sound of the blood dripping down from Gintoki's blade. Its bright silver blade tainted with red.
"One down, 13 to go." Gintoki spoke, tonelessly.
He then dashed to a nearby group of three, engaging them on battle. One of them was unlucky, for he did not react fast enough, paid with a quick death a slice to the throat that ended his life. The other two reacted just in time to save their life, their swords made a clank sound after meeting with Gintoki's blade.
"Kill him! Avenge our brother and sister!" One shouted, the others roared in agreement.
One by one, they charged at him.
And one by one, with each clank of metal met with metal, a body fell.
One was lucky enough to strike him but the damage was not done.
The last thing he saw before dying will be the face of Gintoki, smashing the blade of his sword by biting it, hard. And a quick stab to his heart, ended his pathetic life.
Gintoki sent a spinning slash that hit surrounding enemies, lucky enough to still be alive. Though, one was not lucky enough as it was deep enough to cut his heart. The formerly called Corpse Eating Demon jumped on the corpse then pushed his leg to use the momentum to send soar him above them, which he then spun and landed with a stab to one of the Faunus' eye, piercing through the eye, brain and skull.
'What does that make? 3, 4?'
A roar cut-off his thought, but it was futile as his reward was getting his hand cut off. Gintoki grabbed the sword from the fallen hand and threw it hard into another one, stabbing through a female Faunus' head.
Each slash, each slice, each cut, stained his white-greyish kimono, coloring it red. Not of his own blood, but of his enemies.
'How sad. Only 3 of them left.'
Gintoki made short work of the two of them, executed both, one by behead and the other by the heart. He eyed the last one alive, the third female Faunus he will be killing. He walked to her slowly, menacingly. The fear was clear on her pale sweaty face, with some blood of her fallen comrades spilled on her. Her face is of the same of a traumatized person.
Each step Gintoki took, the Faunus crawled back, walking is not an option for her right leg is not working, courtesy of Gintoki cutting the nerves. Let it be known, that this day is the day Gintoki found his sadistic side.
Gintoki's eyes, still lifeless, his lips in a straight line, not a scowl nor a frown, just a straight line.
"Y-Y-You're not human, not a monster, you're a demon!" Her words struck him like a needle, the indication was Gintoki's clenching his sword tightly, shaking. "Shiroyasha! White Demon!"
"Shut up. Someone who is about to die, should not talk. The reason you're dying in the first place is simple." The Faunus who now hit the wall with her back, paled much more. Gintoki walked slowly towards her, and suddenly, in front of her, slashing her from the shoulder to hip, and more blood spilled. "You are weak. Remember the reason why you're dead." Then Gintoki left her body there, dying slowly due to blood loss. And in her dying breath, warned her brethren of a White Demon.
Gintoki observed his get-up. 'I reek of blood. Lots of blood. This will be difficult to explain…'
He left the area soon, avoiding eye contact from passersby, and then went back to where the Bullhead dropped him.
As he got in, the pilot covered his nose, but made no sound for fearing his life, and turned the engine on, to fly towards Beacon Academy.
With the bullhead soaring in the sky, in the area of the warehouse, on top of a plank, is a raven. A raven that observed everything it just saw. The bloodbath, caused by a lone child.
On that day, a human most wanted criminal, vomited to the sight behold to him, the sight of gore, and blood, with bloody smell reaching into his nose. And other than the criminal, the news went to chaos about an incident of an entire massacre in a warehouse.
All of this, caused by a child.
!THE END!
