Hey guys it's Lokile here with another chapter of Shattered Honor. On with the show!
Disclaimer: I don't own RWBY, Marvel, or Dishonored.
Smiling at Peter externally, internally I couldn't shake the feeling that I've met him somewhere besides the graveyard. "Seriously where do I know this guy from?!"
"Jaune!"
"Oh my bad, I thought I met you somewhere else before." I said, speaking the truth for the first time since I came here. Well it doesn't really matter in the end, I'm still stopping the terrorists.
"Probably just your imagination." He said quickly, just a bit too quickly for my liking. He's hiding something for sure.
"Yeah, your probably right" I said, pretending to go along with his lie for now. "Oh, Peter before I go can you tell May that I'm going to get my stuff."
"Sure." He said as I left FEAST to get my equipment. "Now that I think about how am I going to hide my equipment? That's a dumb thought Jaune, just steal a bag or something like you did with that bakery. Or I could steal some money and buy one."
As I was contemplating my next course of action, I soon found myself at the abandoned building that I was staying in. Donning the coat, mask and tucking away the Heart, I made my way to the back of the building and left making sure no one saw me. Blinking to a rooftop, I see some thugs robbing a nearby by jewelry store with one of them carrying a duffel bag. "My luck's finally turning around!"
Blinking behind the one with the duffel bag, I throw a haymaker at his head effectively knocking him out. Just as the other two reacted, I blinked behind one and gave him a swift axe kick to the skull before having to duck because of gunfire from the last guy. Hopping over the counter as he fire at me, I decide to taunt the poor guy.
"Hey your husband buy you those clothes?" I said only angering the thug more. Yelling in rage he emptied out the rest of his amma forcing him to reload. "Now's my chance!"
Running up to him, I slam into him forcing him to drop the gun. After that I beat him into a pulp, grabbed the duffel bag and put most of the jewelry back before I left. "Problem solved and I made some money too! Today's really looking up for me, nothing could go wrong!"
…..
…..
"I just jinxed it didn't I?" I thought cursing myself for being the one to tempt fate once again. Getting back to the apartment, I took off my gear and put in the duffel bag with the jewels I kept for myself. "Gotta sell those some how."
Heading back to FEAST and enjoying the breathtaking sights of New York City for the first time since I came here. Maybe I can truly start over here, no huntsman, no bullies, no Grimm and no one knows who I am. Before I could dwell on it I arrived at the shelter, entering I place my bag down in an empty space near the rest of the homeless.
"May as well familiarize myself with everyone here." I thought looking at some people playing chess.
"Uh, my name's Jaune Arc and I'm new here and thought I should introduce myself." I said, sounding more like a robot than a person. "Curse you awkwardness!"
"Hahaha, the name's Cam and this is Eileen the loser of this chess game." He said clearly in high spirits.
"Please, the game just started." Eileen said in return. "And nice to meet you too Jaune."
After that I went on greeting everyone there, meeting some interesting characters like Gloria before deciding to head out and train. Discreetly taking the Heart with me as I left trying to find a place to train. "Wait maybe that old man can help me out!"
Taking out the bone charm that I still had on me since the robbery, I opened my mind to it's alluring song and was back at the shop. Looking around for the old man, I find some weird red and blue vials that weren't there before.
"Welcome back young one." The old man said, scaring the shit out of me. Again.
"You really need to stop doing that."
"And you need to stop screaming like a little girl, two things that won't change." He said with a teasing grin on his face. "So what are you here for kid?"
"Do you have anywhere I could train?" I said getting to the point.
"Do I look like I would have such a thing?" He said, making me feel kinda dumb for asking. "Of course I do!"
"I under - wait what, you do!" I said thankful that I didn't have to run around looking for a place to train. "Thank you so much!"
"Don't thank me yet kid, this training ground is hell on earth." He said ominously.
"What do you mean?" I said getting a bit scared.
"You'll find out soon enough." Was all he said before we entered a giant black rock with a door on it.
"Is that supposed to be it." I said disappointment filling my tone.
"Go inside." The old man said before leaving.
"May as well do what the man says." I thought, entering the giant rock only to see a empty room. "How am I going to train here?"
Just as I thought that the room shifted and changed. It was now an elaborate mansion full of those demon guys, all potraling the area. "So this is how I'm going to train."
-2 Hours Later-
"Oh my god, I'm dying!" I said in pain and exhaustion. The bastards kept on coming and coming in constant waves, all of them actually trying to kill me. Also their attacks were pretty fucking real. How do I know you may ask, I have a stab wound in my shoulder.
"Sloppy, very sloppy." The old man said as he came back with a red vial. "I expected better from you kid."
"What the hell did you mean sloppy!" I yelled. "I beat all of them."
"True, but don't you think you could done it faster, quieter or not get stabbed?" He said in reply. Thinking back on it, I could've done better, instead of being caught in the first thirty seconds. And I could've used blink a lot less.
"Here, drink this it'll help you heal faster, won't stop it from scaring though." He said handing me the vial from before.
Looking at it for a second before shrugging and downing it in one go. It actually didn't taste all that bad and I felt better already.
"What was that?" I said amazed by its regenerative capability.
"Just some medicine that was used to cure a disease in a distant world, that also happened to have healing properties." He said. "But now it's time for you to go,"
The world shifted once more and I was back were I was, at the exact same time like nothing happened. "I guess time flows differently on each world."
Continuing my waltz around the city, I feel the heart begin to beat once more. Going to an alley and pulling out the heart, only to accidently point in the direction of a nicely dressed man talking to someone on the phone.
He works under one of the Maggia Dons as a spy. It spoke almost longingly for something.
"Maggia Dons? This city has a mafia too?! You've gotta be fucking kidding me! Don't the world's 'Greatest Protectors' live here?! I raged internally. "Seriously, how do they let these guys stay here for so long!"
Trying to find the charm or rune that the heart picked to get my mind off of corruption in this city, I find it in a inside of a house. "Great, more breaking and entering."
Well time to head back to FEAST and get some rest.
-Nighttime-
Sneaking out of FEAST wasn't as hard as I thought, but then again there's no guards anywhere. Heading back to the house where I found the charm/rune, I sneak over to the backdoor and try to pop up the door by stabbing my foldable blade in the tiny wedge. Fortunately it worked but the sound may have woke someone up so I blinked on top of the house. Just as I did someone came around turning on all the lights in the house and running out to the door.
Thinking about it for a second, I land behind him and slammed the hilt of my sword on his skull, knocking him out. Picking up the guy's body and closing the door quickly so nobody would notice me. Laying the body down gently, I hurry and location the charm under a loose floorboard. Grabbing it, I leave making sure nobody saw me.
"Well that actually went pretty smoothly. Probably because of the training." I thought before checking out the rune. The rune suddenly glowed and it was gone, before I could act out my surprise however my mind was thrown into chaos by visions of someone blocking bullets with their sword. When the visions ended I felt as if I could whatever that man could. "So that's what runes do."
Well it's time to head back to FEAST before it's too late.
-Morning-
Getting up I stretched and went into the bathroom to get myself situated and clean. After showering, I ate the breakfast the volunteers handed out. It wasn't much but it was appreciated regardless. Walking out with my bag to try and sell some of the jewels I got from that robbery. Only to see a black truck load up with demons in a nearby alley. As they were getting in I go into another alley and change into my suit and blink onto the truck. As it drove around wrecking cars left and right I begin my assault on them.
Crawling up to the driver's window I stab the demon driving straight through head before pulling his body out of the truck, causing it to start swerve dangerously. Unfortunately, one of the guys without a mask(The boss?) grabbed the wheel and shot a blast at me that I only managed to dodge by a hair's length. Just as I was about to strike again, the truck crashed into some police cars and came to a complete stop, throwing me off the truck. "Gonna feel that tomorrow."
Getting up, I saw them take someone with a suitcase handcuffed to his hand and begin driving again just as I blinked aboard. Unfortunately as I land Spider-man does too.
"Oh, it's you again. Let me guess your here for the demons too?" He yelled over the chaos around us.
Not replying to his comment as more demons climbed up clearly ready to fight. I took the one on the right with the pistols and used my newly acquired technique to deflect the bullets then ran up and jammed my sword right through his heart and ducked under a blade coming for my head. Turning around I used my aura to strengthen my sword to the point where it cut the bastard in half leaving him to scream in agony in his last moments.
"Pathetic wretch!" I yelled at the bisected demon corpse before being hit by a large demon with glowing gloves. Rolling out of the way of his second punch, I slashed at his chest leave a decent size gnash behind staggering him a bit leaving him open. Taking advantage of his current situation, I stab the big fuck right through the throat.
"Do you feel the pain that you caused all those people?! TOO ANN?! I thought seething with rage. Getting back to the fight I notice some demons in cars shooting at me and Spider-man. Blinking on top of one, I cut the head off of the demon on top, then I killed the driver and took the wheel and rammed it into the other car before blinking back to the truck.
Oddly enough some guys in white armour started shooting at me too. "The hell, I'm helping you!" I thought as I dodge a laser? "These guys have some serious heat!"
"Can I get a bit of help here!" Spider-man said fighting two whip demons.
Running over, I stab one of them through the back before pulling the blade out, just as Spider-man knocked his one out. Climbing to the side of the car, Spider-man begins to struggle with the boss before screaming suddenly and then getting knocked over by a blast, only holding on by the broken door that was falling apart.
Just like I thought, the door fell off and Spider-man began to ride the door until he got back to the truck and began tilting the truck.
"Is this guy insane, he's going to hit civilians!" I thought stabbing my sword into the truck to stay on. Only to crash into a building and blackout.
Waking up, I was greeted by the sight of a broken truck without any demons. "Damn it he got away!" I thought in frustration, only to see a unconscious man a few feet away from up to him I shake him forcing him to wake up.
"Wh- Who are you?" He said, fear coloring his voice.
"The Overseer." I said because it was the first thing that came to mind.
"Dr. Michaels get away from that guy." Spider-man said after waking up. He was about to speak more until a helicopter came by and a beautiful silver haired woman and two white armored men came out.
"Where's the serum and who is he?" She said quickly, with an undertone of anger and stress.
"The serum's gone and this guy is…?" Spider-man said not knowing my name.
"The Overseer." I said.
"Didiskoya. So called super hero, you think you save people but you just make it worse." She said looking at Spider-man before snapping her hateful gaze upon me. "And you I've been getting reports about someone killing the demons that matches your look. Just who do you think you are?!" She said pulling her guns on me. That's the final straw.
Using blink I teleport behind her and take one of her men hostage.
"I would choose my words wisely here lady, don't want me killing anyone else now do you?" I said turning the tables completely. "Now put the guns away and nobody gets hurt."
Looking at me in surprise at my teleporting trick, she begrudgingly put her guns away and stares at me with more hate than I thought possible.
"I did what you asked, now let my man go." She said balefully.
"Not until you tell me who the demon's leader is and what the serum is." I said, milking the situation while also drawing my blade closer to the soldier's neck. "Or else."
"But you said-"
" 'But I said' she says, clearly not understanding the position she's in." I said taunting her. "Now tell me or your man dies here and now."
"Fine, their leader is Martin Li and the serum is Devil's Breath, a serum that causing genetic breakdowns and damage to the human body."
Satisfied with her answer, I push the soldier towards her and blink away before anything else could happen.
-Peter's POV-
"That guy's becoming more and more of a problem every time I see him." I said unable to fully comprehend what just happened. Only to hear a very anger Silver Sable start yelling.
"Who is he?!"
