Alright I'm throwing down the gauntlet, RWBY Volume 3 is a week away, so I'm pulling out all the stops. I'm finishing this story, so expect an almost daily update. No more laughs, I'm finishing this up plot wise. Also to the people complaining about Ruby last chapter. IT WAS A JOKE! Played for laughs. Let us begin. I own nothing except my ideas and OC's.
George walked through Beacon, Ash had given him a message to meet him in the courtyard. For what reason George was in the dark about. He walked out and saw Ash standing over Robert's grave, the Armor of Brutus on him, and the Dagger of Brutus in his hand.
"George". Ash began before turning to him, returning the armor to its restrained form. "I'm glad you arrived". Ash says.
"Hard to ignore a request, what do you need"? George asks.
Ash looks at the grave one last time before sighing. "I cannot take on Robert's burden, I am not suited to these tools, you however, are more suited for their use". Ash explains.
"Your saying I should take the Armor"? George asks in shock.
"Yes, I'm not good with clunky and heavy armor, you excel at it, and I have a feeling it will be in better hands". Ash responds.
George stared before kneeling and bowing his head, Earthbreaker beside him in his hand, as if he was a squire waiting to be knighted.
Ash walked forward before clasping the armor piece to George's right shoulder, and handing the Dagger to George, who strapped it to his waist.
"I hereby pass the Armor and Dagger of Brutus, Assassin of Julius Caesar, onto you George Armstrong, use it with pride". Ash passes.
George nods before the Armor piece glowed and surrounded him, until he was garbed in the full armor. He looked it over, before noticing the hood, he unraveled the makeshift hood back into its full cape, giving him a regal knight form. He unsheathed the Dagger and looked it over.
"The Armor and Dagger are yours to use as you see fit, customize or change them at your leisure". Ash adds.
George nods before he sheathes the dagger and returns the armor to its restrained form. "Thank you, Ash". George thanks.
"There's no reason to thank me, you deserve it more than anyone, after all, you were my first apprentice". Ash reminds.
George smirked and held his hand out, which Ash took. The two engaged in a brotherly hug before separating and walking away, to their own business.
And there, by no means was this designed to be long, a simple passing on. The Armor was actually never meant for Ash, I realized later that George could have more use of it, but I couldn't just change it, so I had Ash pass it on to George, who indeed deserves it, he IS in fact the first Assassin Ash ever recruited.
